The time it takes to cure a ligament tear varies depending on the severity of the tear. For minor tears, it can take up to 6 weeks (42 days) to fully recover, provided you avoid activities that could worsen the injury. More severe tears, especially those requiring surgery, will take considerably longer to heal.
Here's a breakdown:
- Minor Ligament Tears: These involve microscopic damage to the ligament. With proper rest and care, recovery can take up to 6 weeks.
- Severe Ligament Tears: These tears involve more significant damage and may require surgical intervention. Recovery time is substantially longer, but no specific duration has been given in the provided reference.
In summary, the timeframe is variable but minor ligament tears could recover in approximately 42 days.
