I have been living with a full Rectus Femoris tear for over 2 years now after a fall. I had very little advice for the 1st year and then was told it was too late to
really do surgery .
Now 2 years on I find living with this tear quite debilitating and am quite concerned about the long term effects of living with this, with various side effects in my body and especially fatigue .
Was wondering if there are other people living with this injury without surgery ? how they are getting on and if surgery at this late stage is really not possible
Thanks for any advice Ken Saatchi
