Condition 1 – Tendinitis
Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Clinic
Today we'll talk about tendinitis: its causes, symptoms, and the importance of physiotherapy.

Main causes:
- Repetitive movements
- Excessive strain
- Poor posture
- Natural age-related changes

Most common symptoms:
- Localized shoulder pain (which may radiate to the arm)
- Pain when moving the arm
- Decreased mobility/strength
- Discomfort at rest (especially at night)

Importance of Physiotherapy:

- Reduce pain and inflammation

- Improve mobility and strength

- Correct postural changes

- Prevent recurrence

 

But remember, each plan is individualized, respecting the cause of the problem and the needs of each patient.

 

If you have shoulder pain or limitations in your movement, don't ignore the signs and contact us!
