Injuries
Tendonitis, Tendinosis, and Tendinopathy are different types of conditions that can affect a tendon. Tendonitis, also commonly known as tendinitis, is an inflammation of the tendon. Tendinosis is a chronic tendon injury with degeneration at the cellular level and no inflammation. Tendinopathy refers to any injury of the tendon. |
Sprain and strain are two common injuries. Sprains occur due to stretching or tearing of ligaments, whereas strains occur due to stretching and tearing of muscle or tendon. They have similar signs and symptoms. |
A sprained ankle is when the ligament is partially torn or fully torn. An ankle fracture is when a bone in the ankle breaks. |
A fracture and a break are the same thing. A fracture is a medically used term for a break. |
