Ligament and Tendon Repair
Ligament and tendon repair in foot and ankle surgery involves restoring the function of these connective tissues that support movement and stability. Ligaments connect bones to bones, while tendons connect muscles to bones. Injuries or tears can lead to pain, instability, and difficulty in walking. Surgeons often use minimally invasive techniques to reattach or reinforce the damaged structures. This process helps restore normal function, reduces pain, and improves mobility, allowing individuals to return to their daily activities and sports with greater confidence and safety. Recovery involves rehabilitation to strengthen the area and ensure proper healing.
