From playing Rugby i picked up tendinitis. IT destroyed my carrer. I couldnt run for more than two plays.Months later I started running back up, but it slowly comes back, i never ran for months, but out of the blue i ran about 7.5K and have been for 2 weeks every morn. I find myself slowing down rather then picking up the pace. Doc says ice and advil, i say *uck that shi*, advil doesnt help anything, especially this.

So i was just wondering if anyone else has this same problem....ankle brace helped a little bit, but also just cut off circulation(had to pull tight so the pain went away, awkward run). What the hell do i do? Time does not work, i tried that. I need this run. Weather is perfecto.

Jesus obviously does not want me in that ring....but I'll show him..... I can take him.

Searched google for a bit, and theres apperantly ALOT to "treat" this with, like Ultrasound, Light stretchning, massage, and various kinds of anti inflammation medicine (Which i dont recommend cause some say it could make it worse) I found this one "spray" called Therapain Plus

http://www.reliefmart.com/Therapain_Plus_Glucosamine_and_MSM_for_Tendonitis. htm

which alot of doctors prefered, says to be especially good for tendinitis and other joint pains, you can even get a refund if it doesn't help so i'd definity say that something to check out, Otherwise than that, i think you should keep up the running but dont overdue it and try to use some ice to cool it down after training.
