Tendon Repair surgery at Dr. Jamil Al Jamali Clinic
Introduction
When tendons are damaged or torn, it can result in significant pain and restricted range of motion, limiting your daily activities. Tendon repair is a surgical procedure designed to restore the integrity and function of the injured tendon.
What is Tendon Repair?
Tendon Repair is a crucial procedure aimed at restoring proper function and strength to tendons after injury. It involves surgically repairing the damaged or torn tendon, enabling the return of strength, range of motion, and overall function of the affected joint or limb.
What happens during Tendon Repair surgery?
Tendon repair surgery typically involves using local or general anesthesia, depending on the location and complexity of the injury. The surgeon makes incisions over the injured tendon, repairs the damage, and closes the incisions with sutures or surgical staples. The procedure may also involve additional techniques such as tendon grafts or transfers.
Going home after Tendon Repair surgery
After Tendon Repair surgery, a recovery and rehabilitation period is crucial for healing and functional recovery. Your healthcare provider will give specific instructions regarding post-operative care, wound management, and rehabilitation exercises. Physical therapy, focusing on exercises and gradual strengthening, plays a vital role in the recovery process.
Specific complications following Tendon Repair
Possible complications from Tendon Repair include infection, bleeding, nerve damage, scarring, restricted range of motion, and the potential for re-injury. With proper care and adherence to rehabilitation protocols, these risks can be minimized, and individuals can experience successful tendon repair and regain functional mobility.
