4. Not Moving Properly
Whether you have developed tendonitis because of repetitive movements you do at work or from a new sport you have taken up, chances are, you have developed the condition because you were not moving properly. It is important that when you start a new job, whether as a carpenter, a cleaner or a typist, think about the kind of movement that will be required for your job.
Will you have to move your fingers for hours and hours on a keyboard or reach upward for painting? Consult physical therapists and other experts on how to move while working in a way that will prevent injury. Similarly, if you take up a new sport, it is a good idea to take a class with a professional who will teach you how to execute movements correctly. You may also consider special equipment such as additions for your keyboard to prevent tendon damage in the wrists.
