Overview
There are no specific diagnostic tests{cite journal| author=Enwemeka CS, Rodriguez O, Mendosa S| title=The biomechanical effects of low-intensity ultrasound on healing tendons. | journal=Ultrasound Med Biol | year= 1990 | volume= 16 | issue= 8 | pages= 801-7 | pmid=2095010 | doi= | pmc= | url=https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/elink.fcgi?dbfrom=pubmed&tool=sumsearch.org/cite&retmode=ref&cmd=prlinks&id=2095010 }} </ref>[1]
