10 Common Signs of Tendinitis

Swelling

Just like any other infections, biochemical toxins, injuries, or irritations in the body, tendinitis would lead to inflammation and swelling. The friction and strain which is featured by overuse injuries such as tendonitis are mainly responsible for the inflammation in your tendon or other muscle groups that support the joints. Swelling and pain would progress and get worse during the first time, normally 1 to 2 days after the breakout. You can alleviate the symptom by taking in some OTC drugs or home remedies such as cold ice or resting. [4]
