My wrist has been hurting lately and my mom thinks it might be Tendinitis. I am going to the doctors tomorrow and might get x-rays. If it is Tendinitis anyone have it before? How long does it usaully last?:confused:
 
I have bercitus in my right shoulder. They are like the same thing. The pain lasted for a new days and I couldn't use my right arm for anything.
 
Ugh. Don't get me started. I've got that and more. It will get better if you stop using it (your wrist). However, because it's your wrist it may also be Carpal Tunnel which is totally not cool and usually requires surgery. Tendonitis is an inflamation of your tendons usually caused by overuse. Take it easy and try not to use your wrist for a while and it should feel better. There is not guarantee that it will go away.

Also- Not to nitpick, but it's t-e-n-d-o-n-i-t-i-s and Spubba, it's b-u-r-s-i-t-i-s. They aren't really the same thing, either. At the core, they are because they're both inflamations, but tendonitis is an inflamation (swelling) of your tendons while bursitis is an inflamation of your bursa which is the sack that keeps your bones from rubbing together at your joints.

I only know because I have them both. Bursitis in both shoulders (near my rotator cuff) and sub-scapular tendonitis. And plantar faciitis in my feat. My doctor also thinks I might have carpal tunnel in my hands and part of my wrists and arthritis in my knees and neck. I'm on perscription medication for all of them.

I've had tendonitis in 3 parts on my body. It sucks. Is it like a throbbing pain? Then it most likely is tendonitis. I've had it in two different parts of my wrist and my knee once. Where exactly does it hurt?

Tendonitis never goes away really. The doc will probably give you strengthening exercises to do. And maybe, depending on the doc and the severity of the tendonitis, put you in a sling or some sort of movement restrictive brace. You will probably have to wear that for a week or two. No biggie.

And you usually can see tendonitis from Xrays. You can see the inflamation.

Good luck! I hope it all turns out okay!!
 
Good news! It is just tendinitis! No x-rays though and there is some swelling, but not much! Have to wear a wrap, but gets me out of gym for 2 weeks, no pitching practise, and no basketball.:thumbsup2
