depends: extend of injury acute / chronic, age of injury, and age of person if this is an acute tear without subluxation or bowstringing of the tendons then you can treat with a splint - wrist will be in neutral position if it's subluxing or bowstringing with extention of the wrist then you can try a splint and if no better then surgically suture the tear and splint. if this goes untreated then you can lose range of motion hope this helps

How can I perform an effective extensor stretch to improve flexibility and prevent injury?
To perform an effective extensor stretch, start by standing with your feet hip-width apart. Extend one arm straight out in front of you at shoulder height, palm facing down. Use your other hand to gently pull back on the fingers of the outstretched arm, feeling a stretch in the forearm and wrist. Hold the stretch for 15-30 seconds and repeat on the other arm. This stretch can help improve flexibility in the extensor muscles and reduce the risk of injury.
