Type 1 torn pectoral tendon major, 2 months since surgery. when will i get my rom back and be able to lift weights?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Around 3 months.: After a tendon repair surgery, it takes about 6 weeks for the tendon heals. Once the tendon is healed, exersices for range of motion start. When the range of motion has been returned to normal, strengthening is begun. This usually takes 3-4 months.
