Depending on the extent of the injury, minor strains typically take 1 to 3 weeks and severe strains take 3 to 6 months to recover.
Strain injuries, i.e. injuries to muscles, tendons or ligaments in the soft tissues, can take longer or shorter to heal depending on the extent of the injury. Mild soft tissue injuries may have significant localized swelling and pain, but most can recover with conservative treatment, with recovery times ranging from 1 to 3 weeks.
In the case of more serious tendon and ligament tears, there may be motor dysfunction in addition to localized swelling and pain. Some patients may also have a complete tear of the tendon or ligament, which may require surgery to anastomose the severed tendon or ligament. Functional exercises are also required after recovery from the injury. The recovery period for this type of injury is long, 3-6 months for recovery and healing.
The diagnosis and treatment of the disease should be carried out under the guidance of a doctor, and it is recommended to consult a regular hospital, so as not to delay the condition.
