When a tendon is injured, healing involves much more than simply repairing damaged tissue. The body must rebuild collagen fibers, restore strength, improve flexibility, and reorganize the tendon’s structure so it can handle movement and force again. This complex process can take weeks or even months, depending on the severity of the injury.
