Why Your Tendonitis Won’t Heal! #shorts

Your tendonitis isn't healing because it's gone on so long it's now most likely tendinosis. ⁣#shorts
⁣
What's the difference? Tendinosis is a degenerative condition of the tendon - this happens after several weeks of having 'itis', or inflammation in the tendon. ⁣
⁣
After a while, you've got degenerated tissue that no longer responds to the standard anti-inflammatory techniques. ⁣
⁣
Continuing to treat tendon degeneration like an 'itis' won't help it heal!⁣

We use Tendon & Ligament Repair to provide the raw nutrients to the tendon to assist with healing.

Why doesn’t someone explain how to rest a tendon while at the same time trying to strengthen it?

[thethinkersgospel]

I have had a pain in my wrists and arms for a long time but just ignored it untill it was so bad i had to take sick leave from work this has helped massively now i know what i probably have thank you

[LoriBothwell]

I agree and I think it’s important to eat healthy to avoid too many foods that increase inflammation like sugar, alcohol and processed foods. Keep active and strong 💪 Great advice doc❤

I got heel bursitis, plantar fasciitis and achilles tendinosis. Causes:
1. Bad sneaker shoes, it was crippling me more and more, I even had 3 extra insoles at one point. Regular insoles are bad, should be like rebouncing yoga mat. I switched to sandals, Trekmates, yesterday with yoga mat insoles and all sympoms are reduced by 80%, I am healing. Today I tested again new sneakers and bam my achilles tendon started to hurt, they were comfortable but i think it is caused also by the rounded outer heel-sole which makes it move forward and backward, compared to sandals which falls forward but not backward. Switched back to sandals and no pain. I search for sneakers with sandal-sole (like tyre rubber) and yoga mat insole. It is not same as no rebounding Flip flops which also causes tendonitis. I cut out a piece of yoga mat like material and fit it into my shoe ontop of its insole and it felt comfortable but still caused a stabbing achilles tendon pain.
Update1: I put a cut out insole shaped piece of crosslinked polyethylene foam (XPE) beneath the regular insole as a rebounding buffer between inside bottom of shoe and regular insole and it works now if i walk carefully, I am bouncing but they are not ventilating so I stopped using them. I told about this to Reebok, Vans etc, so keep an eye out for rebounding insoles.
Update2: I know the main culprit of bad sneaker shoes, beneath the removable insole is a hard almost nonflexible polyster-like bottom (it should be high resilience rubber), in comparison there is no hard bottom on sandals, the sandals only have soft parts (i guess TPR rubber outsole and maybe HR EVA insole). It is called sneaker or flip flops tendonitis, indoors I switched flip flops for sandals. Yesterday I walked 23 km with my sandals and felt no pain but with my regular insole sneakers that is very painful or impossible, i get stabbing pain within 100 metres. I removed the polyester bottom (can be done by shoemaker as well) and it feels more like a sandal now, maybe I will try to walk with my shoes soon.
2. I ate allergenic stuff and drank salted water which made my tendons stiff.
3. I did single leg calf raises before walking 3 hours non stop. Now I sit and do 25 calf raises as warm up before I go for a walk.
4. I used to walk down stairs forward like everyone. It caused my ankle joints to make a painful popping sound and pain in achilles tendon. Now i walk down backwards which is better for achilles tendon, ankle joint and knees or if forward then it is on a slope made for baby strollers or bicycles or on the grass beside the stair case otherwise take elevator down.

Been to 4 podiatrists over 10 years about my chronic ankle tendonitis. I've been offered surgery, braces, "Fred Munster" orthotics, inserts, physical therapy. Not a one suggested to increase blood flow. I started yesterday with a technique from 2 other Youtubers, and today am significantly better. I can't believe the relief in 1 day.

[urielrobles]

This makes no sense, says strengthening tendon but also rest . So which one do I do?

[scorpionx]

How do you supply raw nutrients to tendons?

[whosaidiwantedahandle]

How do you know when the tendinosis is healed?

After 3 months of rest and rehab and feeling pretty good, I tried rock climbing again. Then the tissue became inflamed again, lasting about a day afterward. Will that reaction go away with time, or is it just because scar tissue sucks?

[kcjd]

The reason mine wouldn’t heal is because I have a congenital bone structure malformation that was hiding in previous MRIs. If you’re getting tendinitis repeatedly, find out why before expecting anything to help.

[Semaj.]

What if I have slight tear in my shoulder ! If I keep training it it will get worse ! So what shall I do I do rest jt ? And then hay shops I can can consume

[juke]

How do you know when it switches? This is very frustrating. I’m 46. I’ve been lifting weights consistently since 19. This time around I’ve had the burning sensation for a couple months. Was training around it and decided to just stop training all together on my third week now and it’s still not healed. Nothing seems to change it much. Is this something you need to rest for months or what? What is the time frame estimate?

[englishincontext]

I have Medial Epicondylitis. If I rest the arm it doesn't improve. If I exercise the arm, no matter how cautiously, it makes it worse. How can I 'rest' the arm while simultaneously 'making it stronger'?

[bellacormie]

Can you do another video on the steps to taking care of shoulder tendinosis.

[Ban]

Do you still continue lifting with it or stop?

[prissylovejoy]

What about arthritis? Anyway to loosen stiff joints?

[LemonPuf]

I have this with my hip. I rest it and have done the physio. When I say rest, I mean I done the minimal I could. Think it’s healed, take a walk and the pains back but the pain is not only in my hip, side of thigh and knee, it’s now in my butt and inner thigh and it’s still agony at night. I want it gone.

[stella]

What do I do to strengthen tendonsis in wrists? How long does tendonosis take to heal if you rest? Does it ever heal? Can I play instruments at all with tendonosis before its heal?

[bjdaniel]

The more accurate term used is tendinopathy

[AryanAhmadi-udhr]

This case also happend with my left wrist.
It has been a few month and it's not getting any better.
What exercises do you suggest me to do?

[Nateflys]

Hey, so I've had wrist pain for about 2 years. Finally went to therapy after 1 year of pain and found out it was tendonitis in elbow/wrist. Therapy didn't help much and I will admit I have stopped doing the exercises. I'm a pretty skinny guy too ( 5'7 120 ) and not the best diet. With it being 2 years now what should I do?
