INTRODUCTION TO TENDONITIS

TENDONITIS

Chronic, or long-term, tendon problems are common. Tendon problems are especially common in people who play certain types of sports. Tendon problems account for almost 30 percent of all running injuries and 40 percent of all tennis injuries.

We use the term tendonitis, which means inflammation of the tendon, to refer to these chronic tendon problems. Doctors now know that the tendon does not always become inflamed when it is injured. Other changes in the tendon can cause tendon pain. However, tendonitis is still the most commonly used term.

    This guide will help you understand:

  • how tendonitis develops
  • how doctors diagnose the condition
  • what can be done for tendonitis
