I : I dont understand your entire question...But simply put, yes a torn outside ligament (known as a lateral collateral ligament or lcl) does have the potential capacity to repair itself, especially if it is an isolated injury. If associated with other ligament injuries, more instability is present leading to more unpredictable results. Regardless, adequate time and bracing as well as rehabilitation are needed for optimal healing.
