Tendonitis heals slowly because tendons have limited blood supply, so there is no instant cure. Since your current medication isn't working, you may benefit from switching to a different oral NSAID like naproxen or ibuprofen to target the inflammation. Applying a topical diclofenac gel directly to the ankle is also highly effective. Alongside medication, strict rest, icing the ankle for 15 minutes a few times daily, and using a supportive brace are essential for recovery. Please consult your doctor to safely adjust your prescription.
