“The best way to manage this injury is with surgery because surgery helps reduce the risk of suffering this type of injury again".
“There are injuries which affect the tendon in specific areas where you have to have surgery. The surgery delays things by around two weeks, but it also reduces the risk of the injury reoccurring".
“Returning in about 16 weeks is the approximate time when you have this type of surgery", he concluded.
