Any cure for tendonitis / tennis elbow? page 4

[Digby]

A round of physical therapy then follow the stretching protocol. My orthopedist said if everyone did 10 min of daily stretching, he would see a third fewer patients. I'm a believer, especially having just finished the first six weeks of rehab following shoulder surgery. Bulling through pain is not a good idea, nor masking it for any but a short bit of time.

All, after I have taken your suggestions and produced a little aide-memoire for myself, I thought I might as well make it a bit prettier and share it. Thanks all for your input - and if you get a chance to look at the note and feel anything is wrong/missing, please do let me know! 2011-03 Addressing Tendonitis (Thor Falk)

I had tendonitis in an ankle tendon. Podiatrist recommended the ice/heat thing and some time off it as much as possible. Then he recommended a light walking program. And as for the lifting....well, I've got a case of double frozen shoulder going on now and before I knew what it was, I was doing some light strength training. I laid off that thinking it would help...and ended up stiffer and with less range of motion.
