Spontaneous rupture of other tendons - what does this mean
Spontaneous rupture of tendons occurs when a tendon spontaneously tears or separates from its attachment to the bone. this can occur due to a sudden increase in tension or load on the tendon, such as with an unexpected movement or a fall, or due to a degenerative process where the tendon weakens over time.
What happens during the disease - spontaneous rupture of other tendons
Spontaneous rupture of tendons is a rare condition that occurs when the tendon fibers become weakened due to a variety of factors, such as age-related degeneration, trauma, or overuse. this weakening of the tendon fibers can cause them to tear or rupture, leading to sudden and severe pain, swelling, and loss of function. in some cases, the rupture may be due to a condition such as ehlers-danlos syndrome, which causes the tendons to be abnormally elastic and weak. treatment typically involves rest, ice, compression, and elevation to reduce inflammation, followed by physical therapy to improve strength and flexibility. surgery may be necessary if the tendon has been completely torn, or if the condition is caused by a medical condition.
