๐ช Understanding Tendon Healing: Get Stronger, Heal Faster! ๐ช
Tendon injuries can slow you down โ but knowing how they heal can make all the difference. Tendons connect muscles to bones and handle a lot of stress, especially if youโre active or an athlete. Did you know they heal slower than muscles because of limited blood flow?
Hereโs the science in a nutshell:
๐ฅ Inflammation Phase: Your body cleans up damaged tissue (hello, swelling & soreness).
๐งฑ Proliferation Phase: New collagenโthe building blocks of tendon tissueโstarts forming.
โ๏ธ Remodeling Phase: Collagen fibers align and strengthen over weeks for full recovery.
The challenge? Scar tissue can form, which is weaker and more prone to re-injury.
Thatโs where modern treatments like PRP therapy and ultrasound-guided regenerative medicine come in โ boosting collagen production, reducing inflammation, and speeding healing!
Tips for healing at home:
โ๏ธ Rest & ice early on
๐๏ธโโ๏ธ Follow your rehab plan
๐ฅ Eat protein & vitamins C & D
