QUESTION: What is the best exercise for deltoid tendonitis?
What is the best exercise for deltoid tendonitis? I would appreciate any advice you can give me.
Thanks,
Michele A.
ANSWER:
Hey Michele,
First of all, did you get a doctor’s diagnosis of your condition or did you do a self diagnosis? You actually have three different deltoid muscles and many other muscles connecting in and around the shoulder joint. In most cases, a tendonitis is a swelling or inflammation of a tendon and rest, ice, and anti-inflammatory drugs are the best rehab. After the signs and symptoms are gone, then you want to figure out what is up with your body structure and why you got the tendonitis in the first place. Was it overuse of the muscle, are you super tight in your upper body, are you paddling properly, are you lifting weights, etc. Get back to me on the specifics of your injury. Hope you had a great Easter!
Hasta,
Beth
