[|AI|]  Hello, Thanks for writing to us, I have studied your case with diligence. This may take 4 to 6 weeks for recovery. Physiotherapy like ultrasound and TENS will help in early healing. Exercises advised to you will help in early healing and reducing swelling. You can continue use supportive splint or brace. If still swelling remains persistent and numbness increases then we may need to further investigate like CT scan. Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow-up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries. Wishing you good health. Take care.
