patella tendon rupture   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #3 of 1299 |
Hello everybody, I ruptured my patella tendon about 10 months ago.
I have been working very hard to get it back to normal and not to
walk funny anymore. Can anyone enlightnen me on how long does a full
recovery take and by that I mean being able to run and jump and walk
normal again without feeling like sometimes my knee is going to go
out on me. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I
have also started looking into active release techniques. Thank's
again Mr T
