Repetitive strain or motion is often the cause of tendonitis. We explain how this injury alerts you to be taken seriously because it could become chronic.
Muscles are attached to bones by long, fibrous structures called tendons, which are responsible for transmitting the necessary force from the muscle to the bone to generate movement. When a tendon becomes inflamed, we speak of tendinitis. However, although it is painful, it is usually not given too much importance and we do not "take care" of the injury as we should. An error because it can be repeated and cause a degeneration of the tendon or tendinosis (chronic tendinitis) or even its rupture, explains the orthopaedic in Delhi. THE SIGNS OF TENDONITIS The symptoms that warn us that we suffer an injury of this type are the following:
The pain is close to the joint and increases with movement Tendinitis must be differentiated from a sprain, which would be an injury to the ligaments that support the joint. Of course, a badly healed sprain can end up in tendinitis, explains the orthopaedic in Dwarka. WHO HAS MORE RISK OF SUFFERING IT? Any tendon in the body can become inflamed, but the most common tendinitis affects the heel, shoulder, wrist, and elbow.
A repetitive stress or overload on the tendon causes it
5 TYPES OF TENDINITIS Depending on the tendon that is injured, tendinitis adopts one name or another:
PREVENTION AND TREATMENT In reality, it is quite easy to prevent it: it is enough to avoid repetitive movements and joint overloads, maintaining adequate muscle tone and warming up before starting to exercise or work if we are going to carry out tasks that involve physical effort of any muscle group, suggests the orthopaedic doctor in West Delhi. How is such an injury treated?
Muscles and joint flexibility should be exercised There may be a greater predisposition to re-suffer tendinitis if the injury has not been properly healed, as the ligament is distended, making it more unstable. To prevent relapses, it is important to maintain and train joint mobility and flexibility, and strengthen the muscles that support the joint, says the orthopaedic doctor in Dwarka.
