An inflammation of the tendon is called tendinitis.
Inflamed

Tendinitis
No. Tendinitis is an inflammation of the tendon. Tendon are sinuous tissues that attach muscle to bone.
A strain is an injury to a muscle or tendon. A sprain is an injury to a ligament.
Achilles tendinitis
That is the correct spelling of "tendonosis" which is not tendinitis but rather cellular damage to a tendon.
Sudden stretching or repeated overuse injures the connection between the tendon and its bone or muscle. The injury is largely mechanical, but when it appears, the body tries to heal it by initiating inflammation.
If the achilles tendon is ruptured then it would need to be surgically repaired. Most achilles tendinitis treatment involves non-surgical methods. Achilles tendon rupture repair surgery can be successful, but achieving maximum results after a surgery like this is unlikely.
Achilles tendinitis is caused by inflammation of the tissue surrounding the tendon or by degenerative changes/injuries to the tendon.Achilles tendinitis is often diagnosed in patients in the following situations:Starting training too quickly after a layoffRapid increase in mileage or speedAddition of hills or stairs to programTrauma or injury during trainingOveruseAchilles tendinosis is usually seen in OLDER patients and associated with: ObesityHigh blood pressureDiabetes
A sprain is an injury in which a muscle is overstretched or torn. Tendinitis is an injury that occurs when a tendon becomes inflamed or torn. That's the difference between a muscle sprain and tendinitis.
