Is it compulsory to do stretching exercises when lengthening your legs? Are there alternatives such as lengthening the muscles with medication instead of physiotherapy? Then you could go home more quickly instead of waiting in the hospital for months.
I've researched and haven't heard anything about whether such an alternative will be available in the near future.

Exercises to stretch muscles before bone lengthening are performed several months before surgery. You have to prepare.

Thank you for the answer.
I mean during the extension process not before. Because of the stretching exercises I would have to live in another city for 2 months and I also think if the muscles, tendons and nerves could be lengthened with medication, you would have the chance of lengthening them by more than 1 mm per day.
If such experiments are currently being researched, I would wait another 5-6 years to carry out the operation.

I don't think it's possible with the medication. You need to move your legs so that the muscles can adapt to the bone size. Especially for the tibia, achilles tendon is such a problem and you think you can do it without moving and just lengthening...

This is a good question, I am also interested in knowing whether any medication would either grow muscles in size or stretch them out.
