How long does it take to recover from a sprained tendon?

Tendon sprains in the clinic mainly refer to sprains of the joint capsule, ligaments, and tendons, and if they are not accompanied by obvious ruptures, they need to be rested by braking for 2-3 weeks to recover. Localized damage to tendons, ligaments and joint capsules must be rested by braking to prevent further aggravation of the injury caused by continued activities, which in severe cases can cause rupture of tendons, ligaments and joint capsules, with more obvious effects on the function of joints and limbs. After the corresponding braking and resting, local topical medication, oral medication and physical therapy can be carried out. Oral medication commonly used to support the symptomatic drugs, including drugs to activate blood circulation and remove blood stasis, anti-inflammatory and analgesic drugs; topical medication is also based on activating blood circulation and removing blood stasis and anti-inflammatory and analgesic drugs, and local physical therapy can also be carried out, including hot compresses, baking electricity, spectrum irradiation and so on. If it is only a less serious sprain of tendon, ligament or joint capsule, it will take 2-3 weeks to recover. If there is no recovery in 2-3 weeks, you must go to the hospital for examination, and if necessary, further surgical treatment is needed.
