Relieve Leg/Ankle Pain with Tendon Release
Leg/Ankle Tenolysis is a surgical procedure that involves the release of tendons in the leg or ankle. This procedure is typically performed to alleviate pain and restore function in patients with conditions such as tendonitis, arthritis, or scar tissue formation. During the procedure, the surgeon makes an incision in the affected area and carefully removes any adhesions or scar tissue that may be causing the tendons to become compressed or restricted. The surgeon may also lengthen the tendons to improve flexibility and range of motion. After the procedure, patients will typically require a period of rest and rehabilitation to allow the tendons to heal properly. This may involve physical therapy, stretching exercises, and the use of supportive devices such as braces or orthotics. With proper care and rehabilitation, most patients are able to return to their normal activities within a few weeks to a few months.
