General Surgeon 's  Response
Hello,

Consult an orthopaedic and plan for an MRI scan to rule out residual tendon involvement.

Most probably you will improve with long-term physiotherapy. If symptoms persist an arthroscopic repair may be required.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
