Tendon Surgery
"The hand is the most sophisticated instrument of the human body."
"Tendon injuries significantly affect hand function. Early surgical care combined with structured rehabilitation gives the best chance for smooth movement and good long-term outcomes." — Dr Gaurav Patodia
Tendon surgery is performed to treat tendon injuries of the hand, wrist, or other parts of the body that affect movement and strength. When a tendon is cut, torn, or damaged, normal motion can become difficult or painful. Surgical treatment helps restore the connection between muscle and bone so that movement can return.
At Dermacure Clinics in Dhanbad, Dr Gaurav Patodia offers tendon surgery using modern surgical techniques and careful planning. Treatment aims to improve movement, protect function, and support a smooth recovery through proper surgical care and guided rehabilitation.
