Tendonitis

An inflammatory and degenerative tendon disease that occurs in response to excessive exertion, repetitive movements, or injury.
Tendonitis
Tendonitis can have an acute or chronic course. The acute form is more often associated with injury or overload, whereas chronic tendinitis develops with prolonged exposure to microtrauma and degenerative processes in tendon tissue. The disease mainly affects the place of attachment of the tendon to the bone, where inflammation develops due to constant mechanical action. The tendons surrounding the large joints are most often affected – the shoulder, elbow, hip, knee, and ankle. Less often, the disease develops in the wrist or foot area.

Predisposing factors

Чрезмерные физические нагрузки

Возрастные изменения

Травмы и механическое повреждение

Неправильная осанка и биомеханика движений

Хронические воспалительные заболевания (ревматоидный артрит, подагра)

Кальцифицирующий процесс – отложение солей кальция в сухожилии

Reasons

Excessive physical activity.

Age-related changes

Injuries and mechanical damage

Incorrect posture and biomechanics of movements

Chronic inflammatory diseases (rheumatoid arthritis, gout)

Calcification process – deposition of calcium salts in the tendon

Symptoms

Pain in the tendon area

Swelling and redness

Crunching and crackling

Limitation of mobility

Weakness in the limb

Consequences

Tendonitis can lead to partial or complete tendon rupture. Chronic inflammation reduces the elasticity of tendon fibers, increasing the risk of their degeneration. With calcifying tendonitis, dense calcium deposits form, which can block movement in the joint.

Treatment

alt
Conservative treatment
In the acute period of the affected area, it is necessary to ensure rest and limit physical activity. The doctor may prescribe physical therapy. Drug treatment is aimed at relieving inflammation and relieving pain. Rehabilitation includes physical therapy aimed at restoring mobility and strengthening the surrounding muscles.
alt
Surgical treatment
The operation is indicated for the chronic course of the disease, as well as for tendon ruptures. Modern methods of surgical treatment include arthroscopic operations to remove pathologically altered areas of tendon and calcifications with minimal damage to surrounding tissues. In severe cases, tendon surgery is performed. After surgery, long-term rehabilitation is required with a gradual increase in workload. Physiotherapy procedures and exercises are used to restore the function of the affected limb.
