Where is your injury: The exact classification of degree of tear depends on what is torn, most of the time a 3rd degree tear is either a complete or nearly complete tear. Healing time depends on what is torn and the ability of other structures to support the load as well as if surgery is needed. Recovery from rotator cuff or acl is far longer than a small ankle tendon.
