Tendons are bands of tissue made up of solid fibres that represent the terminal end of muscles. Within joints, tendons attach muscles to bones. In this way, they have several important functions.<\/p><p>First of all, the tendons allow the movement of the joints, transmitting the energy generated by the muscles to the bones, in order to make them move. Along with ligaments, tendons also participate in joint stability. In addition, tendons have many nerves running through them, so they help transmit important information to the brain. For example, when we lift a load, the tendons connected to the muscles of the fingers and the hand will transmit information concerning the weight of this load.<\/p><p>Tendonitis occurs when a tendon is subjected to significant stress. This can occur due to repetitive or inadequate movements, a significant effort during the practice of a sport, etc.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-a0de3e5 elementor-section-stretched elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"a0de3e5\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;stretch_section&quot;:&quot;section-stretched&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-4cdafb8\" data-id=\"4cdafb8\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6611b71 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"6611b71\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\"><div class=\"divider\"><\/div>How does tendonitis manifest?<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6276709 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"6276709\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>The symptoms of tendonitis are usually quite easy to recognize.

In fact, it is necessary to temporarily stop practicing sports or the activity that caused the pain. The application of ice and the use of analgesics, such as Genacol Fast Action, are also recommended in the first few days to reduce inflammation and control symptoms.<\/p><p>When there is no improvement after a few days, it is best to consult a doctor. Diagnosis of the condition is usually fairly straightforward and is done during a physical examination. When a more serious injury is suspected, a more thorough examination, such as an MRI, may be ordered.<\/p><p>Consulting a physiotherapist can also be relevant when you think you have tendonitis. The expertise of this professional can indeed guide the diagnosis. Moreover, he can prescribe rehabilitation exercises in order to recover a good range of motion and control the symptoms.
