How long does a bruised nerve in my leg by my calves take to heal?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not quickly: If your problem is only a bruised muscles, improvement should occur within 6 weeks at the longest. But nerves heal more slowly--at a rate of 1 mm. Per day. So for long nerves, this could involve months.
