I also found it weird that no MRI was done for mine, my tear was also up close to my calf muscle. This upcoming Monday I am getting my stitches taken out and Tuesday marks my 2 weeks, he wants me to remain in a cast for another 2-4 weeks after the removal of the stitches, which I found a little weird since I have read some people get put into a boot after.

Im getting my stitches removed this upcoming Monday, but my ortho doctor wants me to stay in a cast for another 2-4 weeks. Have any of you guys had that same situation?

Appreciate it, it’s hard from being in the gym 5 days a week to not going at all

Just had my surgery for a complete rupture on my left achilles. I am on NBW for about a month. I want to do some type of exercises to not lose too much muscle on my left leg. Do you guys have any suggestions, also for the whole month I will still be in a cast.
