**What is tendonitis?** Any disorder and damage in different parts of the body is limiting, but when inflammation or irritation occurs in the tandems, a lot of pain occurs in the same area and there is even sensitivity to touching the joint so that if people accidentally touch the damaged part and the inflamed tandem, they suffer a lot of pain and even moving the joint of the damaged part becomes impossible for people. Tendonitis usually occurs around the shoulders, elbows, wrists, knees, and heels. The joints in this area are more susceptible to damage than other parts of the body, and if tendonitis occurs, people experience extensive limitations and problems. **Who is at risk of developing tendonitis?** Tendonitis can happen to anyone, but those who do repetitive and monotonous activities during the day are more exposed to this condition than others, for example, those who do activities such as carpentry or painting or do specific sports such as golf, skiing and baseball will be more exposed to this injury than others. Also, a tendon that continuously performs a repetitive activity is likely to encounter tendonitis. Another group of people may face this problem due to muscle weakness, although some types of diseases such as joint rheumatism, gout, blood or kidney diseases affect the appearance of tendonitis. Tendonitis often occurs in adults and after the age of 40, as the flexibility and elasticity of the tendons decrease with age, and if unusual pressure is applied to them, there is a possibility of tendon rupture. Some types of drugs such as antibiotics and any drugs that reduce cholesterol will affect the condition of the tendons over time, and their use in the long term will cause tendon rupture or severe stretching, which is why people are exposed to tendonitis after taking these types of drugs, which is often a worrying issue for patients. is **The most important signs and symptoms of tendonitis** Tendonitis disease often occurs in the parts where the tendon connects to the bone, but one of the most important symptoms of this condition is severe pain when moving in the affected part. It doesn't matter which limb has tendonitis, in any case, shaking and even touching that area is painful and over time will cause extensive movement restrictions. When tendonitis occurs, moving the affected area is accompanied by certain sounds that you will notice over time that they are unusual, these sounds often occur due to the rupture of the tendon, and you will suffer a lot of pain along with it. Over time, as a result of tendonitis, you will see heat and redness in the affected area and there is a possibility of swelling in the desired area, swelling in the affected area and the area where tendonitis occurred is quite common. **Types of tendonitis** Tendonitis may occur in any part of the body, but the most common one is related to the Achilles tendon, which is located between the calf muscle and the heel. Usually, Achilles tendon injury is related to sports injuries, but in case of long-term use of non-standard shoes, there is also a possibility of Achilles tendonitis. But some types of diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis can affect this type of tendonitis. Another type of tendonitis is related to the shoulder tendon, if you notice inflammation and defects in the function of the shoulder joint and it hurts a lot to move your hand, especially upwards, shoulder tendonitis has probably occurred. Another type of tendonitis is known as golfer's elbow or epidondylitis. This condition is often related to the outer part of the elbow and extends to the wrist. Decoron's tenosynovitis is another type of tendonitis, but this complication occurs when the sheath around the tendons of the thumb between the thumb and the wrist becomes inflamed, the thickening of the sheath and the swelling of the affected area make it painful to move the thumb and require specialized treatment. Trigger finger tendonitis is another type of this condition and it happens when the tendon sheath of the injured finger becomes thick or inflamed. This disorder causes the tendon to lose its smooth movement and long-term inflammation causes the tendon to become sore and thicken, and over time, the natural movement of the tendon will stop. After performing repetitive activities with the wrist, there is a possibility of developing a disorder called tendonitis, but sometimes gout disease and any disorder such as autoimmune and rheumatoid arthritis can be involved in the emergence of this type of tendonitis. ** Ways to diagnose tendonitis** Most movement restrictions that occur in the joint area are related to tendonitis, but doctors use modern diagnostic methods to investigate this type of inflammation, the most commonly used of which is X-ray. By using X-rays, the doctor can check the calcium deposits around the tandems and helps the doctor make an accurate diagnosis. However, experts perform physical examinations with this method in addition to imaging and can diagnose tendonitis from the sound heard from the joints, but physical examinations are not enough to diagnose tendonitis in different parts of the body, and sometimes doctors consider it necessary to perform ultrasound or MRI for better imaging. If you go to a top doctor to diagnose diseases such as tendonitis, experts will take different diagnostic methods according to the condition of the patients and the possibilities they give, and people are obliged to carry out the diagnostic methods suggested by the doctor. **tendonitis treatment** Today, specialists can treat any type of tendonitis very quickly with modern treatment methods, but home care along with specialized treatments has a more favorable effect and tendonitis recovers faster. In the first step, the doctor asks the patients to increase the resting time of the injured tissue, immobility for the injured tendon will make the healing process go faster and you should remove any pressure from the injured area. But to reduce inflammation, improve pain and reduce muscle spasms, it is appropriate to use a cold compress, and you can place an ice pack on the desired area for 20 minutes during the day. But if tendonitis is accompanied by a lot of pain, patients can use special pain relievers such as ibuprofen and naproxen in addition to various drugs, of course, in this case, topical creams and ointments are also effective, and the use of anti-inflammatory drugs with different methods will be effective. But in addition to the mentioned cases, if needed, tendonitis can be cured by injecting medicine. Experts consider corticosteroid injection and platelet-rich plasma injection to be effective and efficient methods, and along with physical therapy, they are suitable treatment methods to cure tendonitis. But in some cases, doctors consider laser therapy, cold therapy, massage, needle therapy, dry therapy, and ultrasonic therapy to be effective, and if necessary, despite severe injuries, surgical operations will also be useful.
