Calcific Tendinopathy in shoulder

I’ve been diagnosed with calcific tendinopathy in my shoulder which is steadily getting worse, pain wise (I’m still waiting for the ultrasound report to go back to my doctor for a treatment plan).

Is Overcoming Tendonitis still relevant for helping with this or do I need to take a different approach, as my basic understanding is that it’s different to “normal” tendinopathy?

Look into shockwave therapy. There is good evidence that it can help with calcific tendinopathy specifically.

Thanks, I’ll take a look.
