Are there any supplements you can take for a torn tendon?
Not really. The supplements are adjunctive therapy to having the tendon repaired. So for example, they might help reduce inflammation after the tendon was repaired or help with wound healing but won't actually help the tendons repair themselves. Please consult a doctor.
