Suggest Exercises To Help Relieve The Strain In Muscles And Tendons

I had arthroscopic surgery last June to repair my gluteus medius muscle (reattached to hip) and my hip flexor tendon tear. All was going well, but the other day, I was getting on a high stool, and I pulled the flexor tendon. Can you direct me to some exercises to help relieve the strain and loosen the muscles and tendon?

hi,
the concern in your case would be re rupture, and the chances in a ruptured tendon for re rupture are high.
Get an MRI done to ascertain this fact.
Do not do any exercises until your diagnosis is confirmed. as this can lead you to more trouble, instead take rest and analgesics.
