(Health-NewsWire.Net, September 21, 2015 ) Orlando, FL -- Tendinitis often affects people who are athletic and young. It takes place when there is an injury or when a person practices poor body positions, which leads to repetitive overuse. It doesn't only affect young individuals, but also middle-aged and older adults. Today, there are many remedies used to address the condition.
The Arthritis Foundation reveals the treatment options for tendinitis. The condition can develop suddenly and can even last for weeks or months before it eventually goes away. It can also be a result of permanent disability, or when a person suffers from injury or damage that has not been treated properly.
Tendinitis can cause the tendons in the fingers, wrists, elbows, hips, shoulders, ankles, knees, and the back to be inflamed. Sufferers often experience symptoms such as swelling, stiffness and pain. The remedies recommended by the Arthritis Foundation are: certain medications, activity modification, physical therapy, rest and heat and cold compress. According to experts, rest promotes healing while activity modification saves the tendon from injuries.
According to some experts, sufferers can also take advantage of splints as they keep the joint properly aligned and take away the stress from the tendon during movements. Cold packs, on the other hand, are believed to help reduce pain and swelling. Heat is also ideal for those who suffer from long-term aches that resulted from overuse injury.
"There are many other remedies recommended by experts such as physical therapy, pain relief drugs, and natural alternatives," said VitaBreeze Supplements spokesperson, Michelle O'Sullivan.
Physical therapy can be effective for reducing the risk of another injury. To relieve the symptoms of the condition, sufferers can also resort to surgery. Pain relief medications such as NSAIDs are also helpful for pain and swelling. The bad news is that the use of pain relief drugs such as NSAIDs is associated with a myriad of side effects. This has led many people to resort to natural alternatives such as glucosamine supplements.
Glucosamine is a widely used natural alternative for individuals who suffer from arthritis. It is believed to help reduce pain and inflammation as well as restore joint cartilage health. This natural alternative is also becoming more and more popular among individuals who suffer from tendinitis.
There are many glucosamine products available in the market today, and experts recommend that consumers take prudent care when choosing a product. Consumers should get glucosamine supplements from a reliable source, and if possible, choose one that does not only contain glucosamine, but also other natural ingredients (http://www.amazon.com/Glucosamine-Sulfate-Chondroitin-Supplement-Turmeric/dp/B00DUMO9X4).
