What Do My Lab Test Reports Indicate?
Question: XRAY and MRI show a detached tendon with attached bone. Looking to see best and least intrusive path of resolve.
Brief Answer:
Surgical repair needed.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
If the tendon has got detached from the bone then it needs to be surgically repaired. The tendon needs to be attached to the bone again according to the site where it has got detached. Surgical repair is the best treatment in such cases. The repaired tendon will then heal in 4-6 weeks. Do consult your orthopedician and plan accordingly.
I hope this answers your query.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
