A member asked:
What can be done about a 6 month old biceps tendon rupture that i never sought out treatment for?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See an upper ex spec: A six month old proximal bicep reptile can be ignored or fixed by an upper extremity specialist. The distal biceps rupture is a more difficult problem and you need to find someone who has performed tendon grafts.
