Hello, Young 35 year old social socer player completely ruptured his semitendinosis tendon (by 12cm confirmed by ultrasound) in mid October. The GP sugested to continue rehab as per usual as this is the tendonused for ACL repairs anyway.
Treatment is going along fine, strength is improving, he is back to 90% speed at training in straight lines and proprioception work has also improved.
The patient is still complaining of slight ache and not felling "quite right' as if he is going to pull his hamstring again. On palpation the semimembranosis tendon is so tight. Frictions, active stretch, US all have not worked.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to stretch out this tendon?
Michelle
