A member asked:
How bad is cutting the tendon connecting the bicep to the forearm?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Traumatically?: There may be surgiacl procedures in which this is done and then repaired or not. If the tendon is cut traumatically the function of the arm will be compromised if not repaired. It is better to do this sooner than later.
