I ruptured my right one playing basketball almost 9 years ago ... one end receded down around my ankle while the other end went up into my calf. Doc explained it like trying to stitch 2 mop ends ... result of the surgery was a shorter tendon that still impacts me to this day. He said breaking my leg would have been much better.

Expect a long road to recovery but stick with the physical therapy, no matter what. Stretching will be key before any activity once you are able to walk again.
