Highly effective Achilles tendon repair surgery
Achilles tendon repair is a surgical procedure that aims to repair a damaged Achilles tendon. The Achilles tendon is a strong band of tissue that connects the calf muscles to the heel bone. It is responsible for the movement of the foot and ankle. The procedure involves making an incision in the back of the leg to expose the damaged tendon. The damaged part of the tendon is then removed and the remaining healthy tissue is sewn back together. In some cases, a graft may be used to reinforce the repair. The incision is then closed with stitches. After the procedure, the leg is immobilized in a cast or brace for several weeks to allow the tendon to heal. Physical therapy is then recommended to help regain strength and mobility in the affected leg. The success rate of the procedure is high, and most patients are able to return to their normal activities after a few months of recovery.
