Tendinitis is inflammation or irritation of a tendon — the thick fibrous cords that attach muscle to bone. The condition causes pain and tenderness just outside a joint. While tendinitis can occur in any of your tendons, it's most common around your shoulders, elbows, wrists, knees and heels and can be commonly known as tennis elbow, golfer's elbow, swimmer's shoulder or jumper's knee. Although tendinitis can be caused by a sudden injury, the condition is much more likely to stem from the repetition of a particular movement over time.
Treatment options for tendonitis include Rest, Ice, Compression and Elevation.
Traumitane puts the ICE in RICE! Traumitane cools as it works to reduce swelling and inflammation and speed up recovery from injury and exercise. The extra-strength Arnica and Menthol combine to provide a rapid, lasting cooling effect to soothe inflamed tendons.
