Dr. Lin Yunfei
Soft tissue injuries of the knee joint typically heal within approximately 4 to 6 weeks. Such injuries may result from trauma or from intense physical activity. The exact recovery time varies depending on individual circumstances: patients with good physical fitness and appropriate daily care often recover within about 4 weeks, whereas those with poorer physical condition or inadequate daily care generally require around 6 weeks for full recovery.
