A member asked:
If ruptured achilles 5 years ago but never received treatment, would it heal incorrectly? would incorrect/abnormal healing show up on mri?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Potentially : Nonoperative treatment of Achilles' tendon ruptures can lead to healing, but usually a loss in strength. It is also possible it did not heal well. An exam and possibly an MRI will give a lot of information about the current state pf your Achilles.
