A member asked:
I had tissue damage in my leg and knee last year and still can't use my leg fully. how long does this take to heal my dr said a year but no improvement?

New normal?: Some damage may continue to improve over time, but some people never return fully to their pre-injury state. If you are healthy & fit before an injury, your chances of full recovery are better.
