Thank you for the reply. I am with you completely that it is very frustrating. We are very disciplined in our training, and I am learning that we must be equally disciplined in our rest and rehab.
I recently bought a PADO purewave percussion massager which has really helped my tendon. It breaks up tissue adhesions, which is key for tendons to return to normal function. You might want to look into it as several PTs have recommended this to me.
