Overview
Muscle and tendon disorders are common conditions that affect mobility, strength, and daily activities. These disorders include injuries, strains, inflammation, and degenerative changes that occur in muscles and tendons due to overuse, aging, or underlying medical conditions.
At Dr. Ali’s clinic, we provide specialized diagnosis, treatment, and management of muscle and tendon disorders, focusing on pain relief, restoring function, and improving overall musculoskeletal health.
Diagnosing the Problem
Muscle and tendon disorders can result from several causes, such as:
- Acute injuries (e.g., sprains, tears, or strains)
- Repetitive stress injuries (e.g., tendonitis, bursitis)
- Chronic inflammation due to autoimmune diseases (e.g., polymyositis)
- Age-related degeneration (e.g., tendinopathy, muscle atrophy)
Common Symptoms to Watch For:
- Persistent muscle pain or tenderness
- Limited range of motion or stiffness
- Swelling around tendons or joints
- Weakness in specific muscles or tendons
- Pain during movement or physical activity
- Cramping or spasms
What We Help With
Our clinic offers comprehensive solutions for diagnosing, treating, and managing various muscle and tendon disorders, including:

- Muscle Tears and Strains:
- Diagnosis and rehabilitation of minor to severe muscle injuries.
- Myositis and Autoimmune Disorders:
- Treatment for inflammatory muscle diseases, such as polymyositis and dermatomyositis, which can weaken muscles over time.
- Bursitis:
- Inflammation of the small fluid-filled sacs (bursae) that cushion tendons, muscles, and bones.
- Chronic Overuse Injuries:
- Managing repetitive strain injuries from prolonged physical activity or poor posture.
- Rehabilitation of Degenerative Tendons:
- Preventing further damage and restoring tendon health through customized therapy plans.
