Ruptured biceps tendon
I ruptured my distal bicep tendon on July 29th. I waited till Sept. 4th to see doctor and I am so pissed at myself for waiting. Anyway, I had a bump from scar tissue and the doctor said he may be able to do the repair properly and remove the bump, so I had the surgery Thursday. I went back today for follow up and he said he couldn’t stretch the tendon to bone and attached it to lower muscle . I was very disappointed. He told me not to worry; that I would only loose about 7 or 8 % of my strength and never notice once I am all healed up.
Any info would be great.
