Answer 3

What is tendinopathy?
Tendinopathy is a type of tendon injury that occurs when the tendon becomes painful or torn. The term "tendinitis"—which means "inflammation of the tendon"—is often used to describe tendon problems, but inflammation is rarely the cause of tendon pain. Most commonly, tendon pain is actually a symptom of a series of microtears in the connective tissue in or around the tendon, which may be called tendinosis. Note that more severe tears or ruptures of a tendon are not addressed here.

Tendinopathy is a term used by a growing number of tendon experts to describe tendinitis (inflammation) and tendinosis (microtears) collectively. This term is not yet universally used. Your health professional may still use the term tendinitis to describe tendon injuries.
