Back Pain and Tendonitis Part 1

Back Pain and Tendonitis Part 1
Tendonitis is most commonly caused by overuse or an injury to a particular tendon, such as a sports injury or repetitive strain injury (RSI). Tendonitis usually occurs at the thumb, elbow, shoulder, hip, knee, heal and wrist, but can occur anywhere there is a tendon. Tendonitis is difficult to diagnose as it shares many symptoms with Bursitis and Arthritis and other more localized conditions such as Carpal Tunnel Syndrome at the wrist.
