I have tendinitis.... help a brother?!


Question: I have tendinitis.... help a brother.?
Well I have had tendinitis on my right wrist since July this year, and it slowly has been getting better, but still isn't fully there. It now and again goes all swollen (like now that son of a.... I won't go there)
I have had several physio sessions and had laser treatment, also had a few private sessions..... but the tendon still isn't better.

Being a musician, this makes me want to eat my own face in anger, but the feat in doing that is near impossible. I also got a call today from the physio saying I might have to have a Cortisone injection.
Any light on any of this.? Any advice on treatments, because I ice it up all the time, exercise as much as possible etc...

I feel like he (my wrist) has a personal vendetta against me.

much love

my huz is a plays keys, has the same thing flare up now and then. regular old anti inflammatories (ibuprofen, regularly) and wearing a wrist support (can get em at the pharmacy or even the grocery store) helps him.

don't know about the lasers, but cortisone isn't bad. it takes away the swelling away and gives the problem a chance to heal. also can make you a little loopy for a while :)

hope this helps, and good luckHealth Question & Answer

You need to let it heal properly before you strain it. If it is getting swolen that means you are doing something to make it that way.
