What can cause tendonitis/tendinitis?

Tendons are described as bands of fibrous collagen tissue, attaching your muscles to your bones. By overusing these tendons with repetitive movements, they may become irritated or inflamed, which can result in chronic pain and restricted mobility of the affected joint. This is the main cause for tendonitis (tendinitis) but tendonitis can sometime happen because you are using your joint in a bad position and the tendon get inflamed over time. Sometime just changing your work or sports position can fixe your tendonitis.

What are the different forms of tendonitis?

The most common types of tendonitis are:

  • Achilles tendonitis: back and sides of your heel & lower part of the calf
  • Shoulder tendonitis (or rotator cuff tendonitis)
  • De Quervain’s tenosynovitis: wrist and thumb tendonitis, often happening in young mothers carrying their baby, or in people who work in an office
  • Tennis elbow and golfer’s elbow: elbow joint affected, also known as lateral and medial epicondylitis
  • Patellar tendonitis: affects the tendon that connects the kneecap to the shinbone

What can physiotherapy do to treat tendonitis?

Physiotherapy will be able to determine which factor led to the inflammation or irritation of the affected tendon, and will help release the symptoms of tendonitis with various physio techniques such as:

  • Mobilisation
  • Stretching and strengthening to avoid any risk of recurrence
