RICE: Rest, ice compression and elevation, this followed by a stretching and strengthening program should help to heal it.

Conservative care: Steroid injection, splinting, compression sleeve or band, therapy, immobilization, icing and anti-inflamatories are all part of the treatment protocol. Surgery is rarely indicated, relatively new treatment is platelet rich plasma injections to try and stimulate healing.
