A member asked:
What kind of conditions/deficiencies result in poor healing in tendons/ligaments , or suspectability to injury ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Here's a few: Poor nutrition or use of steroids will lead to poor healing. Overexercise or stress to limbs and joints without proper preparation, such as strength training and appropriate warm up, can also lead to injury. Also, some chronic disease processes, such as diabetes, can make one susceptible to injury. Good luck.
