Before I try a blasting cap has anyone found a workable treatment for tendonitis?

@b4cks4w use affected area less, rest, low dose prednisone for days, NSAIDs, heat and ice. Takes time.

@SandHillThicket those first two things, how's that work🤣 It's my dominant arm and I have things to do! I started ice today, will look for some anti-inflammatory. Thanks!

@b4cks4w Yeah it's a bugger but they're right.
RICE

Rest
Ice
Compression (more for muscles)
Elevation

It's what the ER would tell you. There's no medicine to cure it.
@SandHillThicket

@b4cks4w I know, right?! I say the same thing and just try extra hard to rest and not use as hard...

@b4cks4w

Sometimes short term splinting is helpful too ( tendinitis of the wrist which is a favorite body part my arthur likes to eat ) not sure where your pain in the itis is located.

@KazzyH elbow, coincidentally(?) the one I broke a long time ago and think healed fine.

@b4cks4w

Ugh tough spot. It affects or is it effects (?) Whatever - your entire arm.

Hope it gets to feeling better. Might try low dose aspirin/Tylenol together & see if that helps.

@b4cks4w there is never a good time to have an injured limb.

I'm 4 months into aftercare for a twisted ankle and its not over yet!
Use a sling during the day and join @daniel on adjusting to the non dom lifestyle 😜 for a while

@Mauve_matelot @daniel @KazzyH 😂
My left hand is worse than non-dom, it's actively useless. I'm a bad leftist

@b4cks4w Please take the advice of the others, take a week off and rest it, you would feel so foolish if your right hand ended up as bad as your left and then what would you do?

@KazzyH

@Mauve_matelot @KazzyH blasting cap.

Okay, I have heat on it as we chat and will try socialism for a week

Thank you @b4cks4w, I know its not easy to step back from a sense of duty and make a commitment to self care.
Please look after yourself, you are an epic Cosonaut and I like you around
