[i]>In cases where there is inflammation of the tendon, tendinitis, local rest (of the injured part), possibly splinting (if appropriate), moist heat and anti-inflammatory medications such as aspirin, Motrin, etc. (Note: Tylenol is good for pain, but does not do much for inflammation.) are a simple program of treatment; however, in some cases tendinitis requires different treatment.<br></I><p>There didn't seem to be much swelling; I used anti-inflammatory pain killers & heat cream (the gentle massage seemed to help soothe the pain too). I didn't seem to lose any strength or flexibility in the joint concerned (ball of the foot) so I think it may have been bruising & strain rather than an actual fibre break. Just keeping the weight off the affected area helped, but it's kind of tricky when you spend half the day on your feet - I find that taking weight of one area tends to put more strain on other areas and eventually causes problems there too!<p>Thanks for all the advice Doc - I'm usually very careful to avoid damaging anything, but this just cropped up without warning. The pain's gone now, but I'll give it 'til next week before I start classes again to make sure.<p>A.<p><br><br>[/i]
