When my injury happened and the severity of it was settling in, I started to ask a lot questions. These were questions I felt that I needed to ask my doctors to help make sure I was getting the best treatment. They also helped me start preparing for what I was about to go through.
The most important questions I started asking were:
What happened? Did it tear? Where did it tear?
Do I need surgery?
What surgeons have experience performing this procedure?
What is the success rate of surgery?
What is the recovery time?
What is the recovery like?
How long will recovery take?
What is physical therapy like?
How long will I be off work?
How much will it hurt?
As I started searching online, I quickly noticed that I often would circle back to pectear.com. I was able to find the following types of information and many great links to additional resources which answered most of my questions.
