Injured muscles and tendons cause pain and weakness. These are signs that the body needs rest and rehabilitation. To prevent further injury, avoid using the affected limb and limit activities that increase pain, especially lifting or repetitive movements. In cases of moderate or severe tendinitis, always check with your doctor or physical therapist before resuming sports activities.
