A member asked:
Is it safe for me to run if i have tendinitis?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
YES: Tendinitis is an inflammatory issue rather than damage to a tendon. Tendinosis however is inflammation combined with degeneration and sometimes tearing. If you have tendinitis, there is no physical harm with running...However you may aggravate the problem.
