Inflammation or irritation of a tendon — the thick fibrous cord that attaches muscle to bone — commonly caused by repetitive motion, overuse, or acute injury.
Tendinitis most frequently affects the shoulder, elbow (tennis/golfer's elbow), wrist, knee (patellar tendinitis), and Achilles tendon. Chronic tendinitis often progresses to tendinosis, involving structural degeneration of the tendon. Treatment includes rest, physical therapy, shockwave therapy, and regenerative injections.
Athletes, manual laborers, and active adults with localized tendon pain that worsens with activity and improves with rest.
