Man and Woman at computer

Frequent bouts of knee arthritis flare-ups were so painful, I would cry walking a short distance.

I'm also saving lots of money." - Merilou Barnekow, Texas

  Flexor Tendonitis: Finger and Thumb Tendonitis  
 Finger Tendonitis and Thumb Tendonitis
An inability to bend one or more joints of the finger or pain when bending the finger or thumb may indicate finger tendonitis or thumb tendonitis. Finger tendonitis is also known as flexor tendonitis, as the tendons in the fingers are called flexor tendons. Finger tendonitis can occur as a result of injury, overuse, or with aging as the tendon loses elasticity.  

MSM is a natural supplement that you can take to treat tendonitis. MSM is an organic sulfur with anti-inflammatory properties that heals tissues at the cellular level. MSM is a safe and effective tendonitis remedy that quickly relieves pain without the side effects associated with NSAIDs and other medication remedy methods. 
 

 Get Soothing Relief for Finger Tendonitis

Symptoms of finger tendonitis and thumb tendonitis include:
_ Pain and tenderness along the flexor tendon, in proximity to the finger or thumb joints.
_ Pain is worse with movement or repetitve activity.
_ Pain at night.
_ Tenderness and swelling over the bit where the tendon inserts onto the finger or thumb bone.
_ Pain when you try to bend the finger or thumb against resistance. 
 
Treatment of flexor tendonitis:
The goal of finger tendonitis treatment is to relieve pain and reduce inflammation. Often, rest, ice and home care pain relievers are all that's needed. The goals of finger tendonitis treatment and thumb rehabilitation include;
_ Protection of the injured tissues to allow healing and to control the early inflammatory phase.
_ Ice packs or ice massage.
_ Rehabilitate flexibility, strength and muscle imbalance, and control physical activities with the aid of taping and splinting.

Get Rid of Thumb Tendonitis Pain for Good

The goal of rehabilitation should be designed to decrease the symptoms, strengthen the muscles of the affected area and increase flexibility. Inflammation can also be treated with nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medications such as Motrin or Advil. These medications can be helpful treatments for finger tendinitis but do have side effects. Side effects of these medications can include stomach upset and bleeding problems.
 
Your doctor might suggest treating your flexor tendonitis with steroid drug injections. Injections of cortisone reduce finger tendonitis and thumb tendonitis inflammation and can help ease pain. However, this flexor tendonitis treatment should be used with great care because repeated injections may weaken the tendon or cause undesirable side effects. Cortisone injections can also increase your risk of rupturing a tendon.
  
If you experience finger tendonitis or thumb tendonitis, you are more likely to have symptoms again down the road, but with an intelligent approach to your exercise or activity routine, this problem can often be avoided.
