The healing time for a dislocated knee depends on the severity of the injury. Most knee dislocations result in the tearing or rupturing of a tendon. In this case, surgery is most likely necessary. This usually has the longer healing process. The time period is usually about a year ..with the surgery and physical rehabilitation. Full recovery of the knee (return to the previous, strong state) could even take longer. The dislocations that may not require surgery could take 6 months. Again, total recovery could mean more time.

How long does a dislocated patella take to recover?

I dislocated my patella fully about 3 weeks ago, it's now in a flexible splint and I've been told to 'wean' myself off crutches over the next four weeks. So you might be back to normal after about 7ish weeks but if you regularly play sport it's advisable you don't push yourself without consulting a orthopedic doc.
