That's really good news, buddy, considering the other things on the list of possibles... What did your doc tell you about it?
Tendinitis is inflammation of the tendon (duh), the thin band that connects your muscle to your bone. Easily happens with training and in most cases can resolve with rest and NSAIDS (I am not recommending you start popping pills, though... Do whatever your doc told you for that).
The caveat is that this could potentially turn into a more chronic problem, or, because inflamed tissue is more delicate, you could more easily tear. Basically what I'm saying is rest the full time your doc says, and when you do start lifting again take it easy... "let pain be your guide"
There are pains to push through and there are pains that are signals for rest -- this one is a "road closed ahead" sign telling you to go train the fuck out of your quads for the next month or so.
Good luck, bro.
