it has been one week since surgery. according to the surgeon I will be in this half cast for another week. so what can I expect after that? what is an arm brace? what is the rehah process?
I had surgery, It was a LONG recovery time, about 7 months before I used it again… IF you can afford it or have a job where you don’t need an arm, I would have it done… I know people who didn’t have it done and they lost strength in that arm and will always have a smaller bicep
I had the lower biceps tendon come completely out and I just got my cast off today 6 weeks after surgery. I was amazed at the time that I has full range of motion and everything. My doctor said, however, that he always fixes this type of rupture since it is the main strength of the arm.
My surgery was done in an orthopedic hospital where the Baltimore Ravens, and all the athletes from the Maryland Terps go. After 6 weeks I start flexing myself without weight.
