Description

Tendon pain (aka tendonitis) is really common among runners, swimmers and cyclists. Runners are often affected at the Achilles tendon in the heel or the patellar tendon in the knee. Swimmers get tendon pain in the rotator cuff of the shoulder and cyclists in the hamstring tendon just by the sit bones.
