Tendons are found throughout the human body and play an important role in joint health. These tough fibers connect muscle to bone. Tendinopathy, more commonly known as a tendon injury, is typically the result of tendon microtears that occur from aging and repetitive movements involved in many sports and work activities. The most common injuries addressed by the pain management doctors at Pain Recovery Center of Tyler include tendonitis and a tendon rupture. If you live in the greater Tyler, Texas area and are suffering from a tendon injury, our physicians can treat the injury and help you return to activities as soon as possible. Many cases of tendinopathy occur near major joints including the knee, shoulder, elbow and ankle. An example of a commonly injured tendon is the Achilles tendon that attaches the calf muscle to the heel bone. Patients requiring treatment at Pain Recovery Center of Tyler include those experiencing Achilles tendonitis, knee tendonitis, tennis elbow and golfer’s elbow. Many cases of tendinopathy occur gradually over an extended period of time by wear and tear to the tendon and its surrounding structures. The wear and tear of the tendon is usually associated with overuse and the body’s natural aging process. Even if a sudden injury occurs, such as a tendon rupture, it is most often linked to tendon weakening. The majority of tendon injuries, such as tendonitis, are treated with non-surgical measures. Patients are often told to modify activities and rest the affected joint, take over-the-counter medications and to begin simple range of motion exercises. If the symptoms continue, a physical therapy program may be prescribed. Pain Recovery Center of Tyler continues to offer the most innovative treatment options in the Tyler, Texas area.
