How long do you have to stay off a torn ligament in your foot?
Depends on the severity of the tear. It can be a month to 6 months to a year if it's completely severed. it will take 6 weeks with proper therapy Depends on the ligament and whether or not blood supply to the damaged ligament was lost. If the blood supply was lost, the ligament will not repair itself and your only option is surgery. If blood supply remains, it may take up to 8 weeks to fully heal. I would recommend physical therapy after the swelling goes down to speed up the process. My own painful experiences. It depends how the injury is because some people might have torn it worse and I think about 6 months it will recover by I have ligament damage in my lower spine, and they said it would heal in 2-3 months, and that was Christmas day...and it is stillbad. They now think it could be a yearbefore it heals properly.
