Tendonitis, also known as tendinitis, is the inflammation of any tendon, which is the thick, connective cord that attaches bone to muscle.<\/strong> A person with tendonitis usually experiences pain near a joint. Tendonitis may occur in one area that has regular impact, or it can stem from a more serious injury. Sometimes tendonitis can be severe, leading to a ruptured tendon, and then surgery is required to repair the damage. Common names for tendonitis include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Repeating a particular movement over and over again is usually the cause of tendonitis. Certain movements, like pitching a baseball, put stress on the tendons needed to perform the given task. Some jobs require people to continually lift heavy objects or perform actions that can strain certain parts of the body. Improper technique can overwork the tendon and lead to tendonitis. One can also develop tendonitis after experiencing an injury or tearing a tendon. Common causes are listed below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The best remedy for tendonitis is to give the body a break. Allow your body time to rest, avoiding the repetitive movement(s) that led to the pain. Preserving mobility helps eliminate the pain and reduce the amount of inflammation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Ice packs are always ideal when it comes to treating issues related to bone and joint health<\/a>. Cold compressors can help reduce the initial swelling and pain. It\u2019s best to ice the affected body part for at least 15 minutes a day, repeating it as needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Any type of physical therapy can help recondition the way the bones and joints function, and help the ability to use them.\u00a0Attending physical therapy can help rehabilitate the affected area of tendonitis.\u00a0After allowing the body time to rest, it\u2019s important for it to also remember its functions.\u00a0Hydrotherapy <\/strong>is one the best types of physical therapy.\u00a0It involves doing exercises in specific temperatures of water, using the water\u2019s energy and therapeutic properties to help heal and recover.\u00a0The pain is less intense when exercises are done in water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Aloe vera, coconut oil<\/a>, honey, and apple cider vinegar can be used as topical treatments. All of these natural things help remedy inflammation<\/a>. These ingredients can also be added to things like dried lavender, chamomile<\/a>, rosemary, comfrey leaf, and even garlic to prepare a homemade healing cream<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You may want to consider wearing a brace or splint to give the affected area a little extra support. A brace or splint also inhibits you from moving the body part too much, which can be helpful in the healing process. By isolating the inflamed tendon, you allow swelling to reduce, rest, and repair from the damage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
