5. Muscle and tendon strain
Bursitis isn’t the only painful hip condition caused by overstressing or overuse. There are many sorts of tissue around a joint that help it work. Among them, you have the muscles that you use to move, the tendons that connect the muscles to your bones, and the ligaments that keep the whole system together. All of these can be negatively affected by overuse, often in the form of excessive exercise, improper warmup, or sudden physical stress – such as a big effort your body wasn’t prepared for.
One of the most common problems that overuse can cause on your joints is tendinitis, which is the inflammation of tendons. Tendinitis can cause not only pain but also loss of mobility and tenderness. Properly warming up before exercise, taking rests during activity, and avoiding excessive effort are among the best ways to prevent tendinitis and other inflammations of the tissue around your joints.
