Acupuncture

Key Supplements

  • Curcumin 1000-2000mg 3x/day (anti-inflammatory)
  • Omega-3 4-6g/day (reduces inflammation)
  • Boswellia 500mg 3x/day (anti-inflammatory)
  • Bromelain 500mg 3x/day between meals (anti-inflammatory enzyme)
  • MSM 2-4g/day (sulfur compound—supports collagen, reduces pain)
  • Vitamin C 2000mg/day (collagen synthesis critical for tendon healing)

Key Lab Markers

  • Ultrasound (first-line imaging—shows tendon thickening, tears, calcifications, hyperemia—blood flow indicating inflammation)
  • MRI (if diagnosis uncertain—shows tendon pathology, partial/complete tears, surrounding soft tissue)
  • X-ray (shows calcific tendonitis—calcium deposits in tendon, rules out bone pathology)
  • Blood tests if systemic cause suspected: Rheumatoid Factor, Anti-CCP (inflammatory arthritis), Uric acid (gout can mimic tendonitis), Fasting glucose, HbA1c (diabetes impairs healing), Thyroid panel (hypothyroidism associated with tendon issues), Vitamin D, magnesium (deficiencies impair healing)
