Question: Bruised Tendon!?!!?!!?!!?!!?!!?!!?!
My neighbor says she has a bruised tendon but I don't think she does!. We were playing in the sprinkler and she fell on her leg!. She wasn't crying and she could walk fine!. Then about a week later she went to the doctor and said that she has a bruised tendon!. Then about 3 days later, my friend came over and we were going on a run and my neighbor was too!. Is a bruised tendon bad!? I think she just got a regular bruise, but I am not sure!. What do you think!?!?!?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
Tendons are fibrous tissue that connects muscle to bone!. They do not bruise but can be strained!. The severity of the injury depends on the degree of the strain!.

Bruises or contusions are caused by bleeding into muscle or soft tissue and can be mild or severe!. They can take days or weeks to heal!.

By the way ligaments connect bone to bone and when injured but not torn completely are called sprains!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

if the doctor says she has it then yes!.

doctors didnt go through 8 years of medical school for nothing!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
