Do anyone have experience with treatments that can be applied to spots that are painful and inflammed? If you do, I would appreciate if you could contact me to discuss the theraputic application for my possible tendonitis and inflamation problem. Thanks.

the goal of treatment is to relieve pain and reduce inflammation.

Rest or immobilization of the affected tendons is helpful for recovery. This may be achieved using a splint or a removable brace. The application of heat or cold to the affected area can help.

Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medications (nsaids), such as aspirin or ibuprofen, can also reduce both pain and inflammation. Steroid injections into the tendon sheath can also be very useful in controlling pain and allowing physical therapy to start.

Physical therapy that stretches and strengthens the muscle and tendon is essential. This can restore the tendon's ability to function properly, improve healing, and prevent future injury.

Rarely, surgery is needed to physically remove the inflammatory tissue from around the tendon.
