A member asked:
Is it possible to rehab a tendon like the fhl after it has been overstretched?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Certainly: It is painful to over stretch the flexor hallicus longis tendon but physical therapy certainly can help bring you back to normal or near normal function . It will take work on your part though. I always call good pt pain and torture, but it works!
