Tendonitis Diagnosis

What is tendonitis diagnosis?

An orthopedic doctor may diagnose a patient with tendonitis in a clinical setting when a specific set of signs and symptoms are present. Redness and swelling or inflammation are visible signs of tendonitis that require immediate treatment such as ice and/or medicine. Pain experienced around an inflamed area or tendon during certain movements would be considered a symptom of tendonitis.

It is not common for X-ray or MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) machines to be used by doctors to form a proper tendonitis diagnosis. In the case of severe pain and swelling, these devices may be used instead to identify a tissue tear or rupture of a tendon stemming from a possible injury.

For instance, a sports player may tear or rupture his or her Achilles tendon from a game of basketball. Excessive pain, redness and swelling around the Achilles area may suggest to the doctor that an MRI is justified especially if the tendon responds little to treatment. In most cases surgery may be required to repair a torn or damaged tendon.

Tendonitis diagnosis--common types

Wrist Tendonitis:

A very common problem, especially ocurring in people who type all day long (like me), that may cause pain and swelling around the wrist area.

Elbow (Tennis Elbow) Tendonitis:

One of the most popular forms of tendonitis pain. Given the name "tennis elbow" because people playing tennis tend to become afflicted with this form of tendinitis.

Patellar (knee) Tendonitis:

Also known as Jumper's Knee, it affects the area around the patellar tendon that attaches to the knee cap. Some times this type of tendinitis can be confused with arthritis so it is good to see an orthopedic doctor for a true diagnosis.

Iliopsoas (Hip) Tendonitis:

Hip tendonitis is very common especially in the elderly who suffer with joint problems or bursitis in this part of the body.

Achilles Tendonitis:

A very common form of tendonitis that should not be ignored. Pain or swelling/infllammation in the Achilles area are excellent signs and symptoms of a potential problem and could be an early detection system for an impending Achilles tendon rupture. If you are experiencing pain or swelling in the Achilles area, you should seek medical treatment as soon as possible.

Rotator Cuff Tendonitis:

Many patients with rotator cuff tendonitis may also be diagnosed with having shoulder bursitis or frozen shoulder. Many times rotator cuff tendonitis results from a preexisting condition such as an injury to a tendon. If you are having shoulder problems, you should consult an orthopedic doctor for more tendonitis treatment information and/or a tendonitis diagnosis.
