Tendon Debridement

Recovery from Tendon Debridement typically involves a structured rehabilitation program to regain strength and mobility. Immediately after surgery, the affected area will be immobilized in a brace or sling, and pain medication will be prescribed to manage discomfort. Ice application and elevation are crucial in the first few days to reduce swelling. Physical therapy usually begins within a few days or weeks, focusing initially on gentle range-of-motion exercises, gradually progressing to strengthening and functional movements. The full recovery period can range from several weeks to a few months, depending on the severity of the condition, the extent of debridement, and individual healing capacity. Adherence to the rehabilitation plan is vital for optimal outcomes, helping to prevent re-injury and ensure a successful return to daily activities and sports.
