Wrist pain from tendinitis?

I was diagnosed with tendinitis about 2 years ago. I thought that it had gone away. Then the other day when I was weight lifting i got a sharp pain in that wrist. It still hurts, it the tendinitis back. If so what do I do

You may have irritated the tendonitis. Please place ice on the site, elevate it, and REST- Take an anti-inflammatory medication such as ibuprophen or aleve for the pain. Cut the lifting for a few days. There are good hand/wrist splints you can purchase if the pain doesn't go away for a few days. If this continues, I would suggest you go see the Physician.

Start with Ibuprofen, which is available in any drug store over the counter. This is an anti-inflamatory - reverse the inflammation - stop the pain. If the ibuprofen doesn't work and/or you need to remain on the ibuprofen for more than a couple days, consult your doctor. It is most likely a flare up of the tendinitis. However, if standard therapy doesn't work, it could be something else. Your doctor can most accurately diagnose and treat the problem.

Hope you feel better soon!
