Rest, ice, NSAIDs: A wide range of treatments are available for tendonitis. True tendinitis usually occurs when a tendon has microtears and/or has been overused in the first few weeks after an injury or exposure. Many tendon problems become chronic and are better termed tendonosis, since there is less inflammation. Early treatment includes rest, ice, possible immobilization/bracing and anti-inflammatories.
