I have been suffering from severe ankle tendonitis for ten days, and medications like Orthodex MR and Sloan's Balm have not relieved my pain. What are the best medications or pharmaceutical treatments to cure this quickly?
Tendonitis heals slowly because tendons have limited blood supply, so there is no instant cure. Since your current medication isn't working, you may benefit from switching to a different oral NSAID like naproxen or ibuprofen to target the inflammation. Applying a topical diclofenac gel directly to the ankle is also highly effective. Alongside medication, strict rest, icing the ankle for 15 minutes a few times daily, and using a supportive brace are essential for recovery. Please consult your doctor to safely adjust your prescription.
