Variable: The amount of pain one experiences after surgery varies from person to person. Any surgical procedure will cause certain levels of pain in the post operative period. Surgical technique is important in preventing unwanted complications. If surgery is needed, i would recommend researching the doctors in your area and try to find one with high patient satisfaction.

Tendon surgery: Everyone is different and where the surgery is done , the amount of dissection needed , etc are all factors. Speak openly with your surgeon for the best advice.
