What Is Tendonitis?

Tendonitis refers to tendon irritation and inflammation. The tendons are the cords that connect bones to the muscles. Tendonitis can develop in several areas of the body but it is more common in the shoulder, wrist, ankles, and elbow.

Tendonitis Symptoms

The common symptoms of tendonitis include:

  • Reduced motion range
  • Pain in the affected area
  • Mild swelling
  • Tenderness
  • Grating sensation with tendon movement

Tendonitis Causes

Tendonitis is caused by a sudden injury or repetitive movements over time. People who engage in repetitive activities for a long time are more likely to develop tendonitis. Other factors that increase the risk of getting this condition include:

  • Poor posture
  • Conditions that weaken the muscles such as rheumatoid arthritis, blood diseases, and kidney diseases
  • Certain medications
  • Aging

How Chiropractic Care Treats Tendonitis

Chiropractic care is one of the treatment methods used for tendonitis. Before the treatment, the chiropractor examines the patient thoroughly. If they are diagnosed with the condition, we determine the best treatment plan, depending on the type of condition and its severity. Some treatment options that we may recommend include massage therapy, soft tissue therapy, exercise, and others.

As we have mentioned, chiropractic care does not use invasive treatment methods. There is also no need to take medication. The treatment method focuses on helping the patient heal, rather than just tendonitis pain relief. This helps the patient find long-lasting natural relief.

It might take some weeks or even months to recover from tendonitis, depending on the severity of the condition. It is crucial to seek treatment immediately when you develop the symptoms of tendonitis. Delaying treatment can cause complications such as tendon rupture, which is a severe condition that often requires surgery to treat. You can also develop tendinosis, which makes the tendons develop degenerative changes.
