There is no fixed recovery time for pes anserine tendinitis; it primarily depends on the severity of the patient’s condition, the treatment approach, and daily care. Following the physician’s instructions for medication and actively cooperating with treatment typically leads to symptom improvement within approximately 2–3 weeks. However, failure to adhere to prescribed medications or frequent engagement in strenuous activities may prolong the recovery period.
