Tendonitis Relief in Sam Ridley, Smyrna TN
Tendonitis is inflammation of a tendon, usually from repetitive overuse rather than a single injury, and it commonly shows up in the shoulder, elbow, wrist, or knee. Left unaddressed, ongoing irritation can turn into a more chronic, harder-to-treat problem.
Treating Tendonitis in Sam Ridley
Repetitive tasks on a factory or assembly line are one of the most common causes of tendonitis, since the same motion performed thousands of times a shift eventually irritates the tendon involved. Over 29 years treating patients throughout Rutherford County, Dr. Stewart has helped Smyrna's workforce address exactly that kind of repetitive strain.
Along the Sam Ridley Parkway corridor in Smyrna, we often see tendonitis among warehouse and manufacturing workers whose repetitive job tasks irritate the same tendon shift after shift.
Signs of Tendonitis
- Tenderness that's localized to one specific spot near a joint
- Puffiness or swelling around the sore tendon
- Pain that flares with the same repeated motion at work
