Tendonitis Relief
Tendonitis affects millions of people each year causing discomfort, loss of motion, reduced quality of life and pain! Basically a tendon is a tough flexible band of fibrous tissue that connects your muscles to your bones. Tendons come in many sizes & shapes with many different uses. When a tendon works as it is supposed to will glide smoothly as the particular muscle contracts.
When tendons become inflamed the action of pulling the muscles becomes irritated and the smooth gliding motion will be impaired and this is called tendonitis which literally means an inflammation of the tendon.
Tendonitis is usually an overuse repetitive injury. Tendonitis is most common with people over forty years year and who are active since the tendons lose their elasticity with age.
Some of the symptoms of tendonitis include: tenderness around the tendon, pain of the muscles and tendons with motion and swelling of the tendon and the area around it.
