Full recovery from both complete and partial tears typically takes 12 weeks or more. However, activities may gradually resume after 6-8 weeks when the<unk> <unk> will be mostly recovered. Surgery is typically a last resort. At home, it might be advisable to follow the RICE method to reduce inflammation and ease pain. Immobilization For the first 2-4 weeks after diagnosis, patients are often instructed to use a walking boot to immobilize and protect the foot. Physical therapy During the immobilization period, it is important to keep the foot flexible by lightly stretching the foot and calf regularly. As the<unk> <unk> recovers, physical therapy exercises help stabilize the ankle and correct gait patterns that may have contributed to the tear. Stretching and strengthening exercises decrease the chance of reinjury. Other treatments Platelet-Rich Plasma injections may be used to help accelerate recovery and decrease the chance of reinjury. Cortisone injections may ease pain.
