A member asked:
How long does a damaged tendon take to heal in your foot?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
6+weeks: It depends on the tendon and how its treated. Figure 6 weeks with good care, immobilization followed by light stretching and rom. If it is the achilles tendon that requires professional care and perhaps surgery if the tendon is completely torn.
