What Causes Relapse Of Tendonitis?

I suffered from tendinitis in my wrists, shoulders, fingers and thumbs, hips, elbows around three years ago, since then it completely stopped, no pain what soever until around one month ago, now it s back in the same areas as before, sometimes left hand, right hand, shoulder or elbow. Why the long break and then back to square one, thanks

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello,

Tendinitis can be caused by a sudden injury. It can also be caused by a condition that cause a particular movement over time. Most people develop tendinitis because their jobs or hobbies involve repetitive motions, which put stress on the tendons. I suggest to avoid movements that can twig the pain. Meanwhile, I suggest using anti-inflammatory medications such as Acetaminophen to relieve the pain.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
