Achilles Tendon Rupture Repair

Achilles tendon rupture repair is a surgical procedure performed to treat a torn or ruptured Achilles tendon, which connects the calf muscles to the heel bone. This injury commonly occurs during sports, sudden movements, or activities that place excessive stress on the tendon. Symptoms often include severe pain, swelling, difficulty walking, and weakness in pushing the foot downward. During the procedure, the torn ends of the tendon are carefully repaired and reattached to restore strength and function. Surgical repair helps improve tendon healing, reduce the risk of re-rupture, and support a faster return to normal activities. With proper rehabilitation and physiotherapy, patients can gradually regain mobility, flexibility, and overall ankle strength.
