A hard lump resulting from soft tissue injury in the calf typically takes approximately three weeks to heal completely. If the condition is relatively mild, recovery may be faster—around two weeks. After developing the aforementioned symptoms, patients should visit the orthopedic department of a reputable hospital, where minimally invasive surgery can be performed to remove the lump, facilitating rapid recovery. Patients should avoid strenuous physical activity during recovery.
