Tendinitis Symptoms Causes Tests and Treatment

Tendinitis refers to the inflammation of tendons. Tendons are the tissues that connect muscle to bone.
This condition leads to pain and tenderness over the joints.
Both tendons and muscles work together to move joints and limbs.
Repetitive use or strenuous exercises can make a tendon inflamed.
The main of the tendon is to take some of the strain off the muscle as too much activity can injure them.
Tendinitis can be either acute (short-termed) or chronic (long termed).
As tendons age they tolerate less stress, are less elastic, and are easier to tear.
