What are the symptoms of a tendon rupture?

Loss of motion: The tendon connects a muscle to the bone. If a tendon ruptures, the muscle will no longer move the joint.

Pain weakness: Tendons are attached to muscles. Usually it's the muscle that tears. Either way you lose strength and motion in the effected joint.
