What alternative medicines could i take for my tendinitis?
4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Tumeric and traumeel: Tumeric and traumeel can be used as anti-inflammatories orally. Traumeel or arnica gel can be used topically. Apitherapy, prolotherapy and massage (especially art) can be used to successfully treat tendonitis as well.

Antii-nflammatories: Over the counter versions work well, if you take them with food. Tylenol (acetaminophen) works for pain but does not cut inflammation.
