Coming soonTendonitis is an acute or subacute musculoskeletal disorder characterized by inflammation, irritation, and microtrauma of a tendon, the fibrous band of connective tissue connecting muscle to bone.
It most commonly affects active adults, laborers, and athletes, typically involving high-demand joints and regions such as the shoulder, elbow, wrist, knee, or heel.
Pathophysiologically, it arises when excessive mechanical loading, repetitive motion, or sudden strain exceeds the physiological tolerance of the tendon, triggering localized swelling, micro-tears, and inflammatory cell response.
Defining clinical features include localized tenderness along the affected tendon, joint stiffness, localized edema, and sharp or aching pain that intensifies with active muscle contraction or joint movement.
