What Is Tendonitis?
Tendonitis is an inflammatory condition that affects the tendons or the tissues that connect muscles to bones. It can occur throughout the body and may be known by different names, depending on where it develops — for example, "tennis elbow," "pitcher's shoulder," or "Achilles tendonitis." Tendonitis typically causes pain, inflammation, and sensitivity around the affected area, having a significant impact on your ability to exercise, participate in sports, or enjoy your favorite physical activities in comfort. If you are suffering from painful tendonitis in your feet or calves, we encourage you to contact Agape Foot Care to get the relief you need. Our experienced staff will evaluate your condition and develop a custom-tailored therapy plan to get you back on your feet. Reach out to our podiatry office in Waxahachie, Garland, or Kaufman, TX today.
How Do You Treat Tendonitis?
Treatment for tendonitis usually involves a combination of anti-inflammatory medication, physical therapy, and self-care to manage pain and prevent future flare-ups. During your initial appointment, our team will evaluate your feet and legs to assess the severity of your condition and recommend management strategies. If your appointment takes place at our office in Garland, Waxahachie, or Kaufman, TX, we may take x-rays or other diagnostic tests to get a comprehensive view of the area. We'll also discuss your medical history and daily habits to provide personalized guidance for your tendonitis. For more severe cases of tendonitis, we might recommend ultrasound treatments or surgery to address the underlying issues.
What Are Some Symptoms of Tendonitis?
There are many reasons why your feet or legs may hurt, which is why it's important to schedule an examination with our North Texas podiatrists to receive an informed diagnosis and treatment plan. Some other symptoms that may indicate tendonitis include:
- Limited mobility in the inflamed muscle
- Swelling
- Sensitivity
- A crackling feeling when you move the affected tendon
