i tore the belly of the muscle in my right pectoral 50 to 60%. Im still really strong but i have a good size indent in my peck that makes me look like sylvester stallones pec. the doctor says there is nothing that can be done because it would be like trying to sew jello back together. When he came in he said he has never seen anything like it before and that made me think of how much he really knows about it. I dunno i guess i'm wondering if anyone has had the same problem and has had something done with it surgically, or if there is a specific exercise that i can do to grow my muscle back to get rid of that dent. check the picture of not flexed, and flexed

It is possible to attach them back together but its VERY difficult. Like your doc said it is like attaching jello back together.

Basically, read this for more information:

If your tear is recent then you probably want to find someone who will try to do the repair soon.
