We are asking our reader population out there what they have found to help relieve the pain from wrist tendonitis.

What is a good over the counter, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug to decrease swelling and manage pain for wrist tendonitis?

Here is  very interesting question from one of our readers.

I’ve been diagnosed with a severe case of tendonitis  with months of recovery.  Every doc asked if I smoked or used tobacco (I don’t) when discussing recovery time. Can someone explain the relationship between tobacco use and tendonitis recovery? (beyond merely answering “it takes longer to recover”)

Archillies Tendonitis

I have tendonitis in my elbow. The pain extends to my upper arm. I do circuit training 3 times per week. I saw a doctor who advised me to stop all upper body equipment until the tendonitis was gone then add one machine back each week. The problem is my tendonitis has never completely healed. It hurts whether or not I have exercised. I take Advil but it gives me very little relief.

If I do my upper body exercises when the pain isn’t especially severe am I doing further damage to my arm?

Tendonitis and Exercise

Posted by in Tendonitis

How do I reduce and/or eliminate pain from tendonitis without stopping my workouts?

I have tendonitis (or so my doctor has concluded) in my right lower leg. I am a newly avid runner (three times a week, 2.25 miles or more each plus at least one or two other workouts). I don’t want to stop working out, and I don’t want to permanently seriously injure myself. Any stretches/strengthening/other ideas are GREATLY appreciated.

If you are wondering if you have tendonitis in your thumb, try this test.

Tendonitis at the base of the thumb is tested by wrapping the thumb around the fingers and then moving the wrist towards the pinky. If pain is felt at the base of the thumb the test is positive for tendonitis of the thumb (dequervains)

I’ve had tendonitis in my right hand for months now. I didn’t know I had it until a few days ago when I saw a doctor. I thought it was just a sprain.
Anyway…
It hurts so much, and no matter what I do, it wont stop. I haven’t used it at ALL and still am not, but it just wont stop hurting. What do I do?
