A member asked:
Is muscle spasms normal for post achillies tendon surgery.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Post Achilles Surg: After you injure your achilles tendon, with all the time leading up to surgery, and then the surgery, you have tremendous weakness that settles into the muscle. As you begin to use the muscle again, cramping is a common sign of that weakness. It should get better gradually as the strength returns. Dr rich blake.
