The total amount of time it may take for you to heal from a minor injury depends on the severity and the type of injury. Minor injuries such as bruises, strains, or sprains will often be fully healed within 2 to 6 weeks, with proper health care speeding up and supporting the healing process. More severe tears or strains of muscles and ligaments will often take closer to 8 weeks at least in order to be fully healed. Many of the minor injuries that include straining, spraining, or breaks will be fully healed within 8 weeks but require the patient to follow all provided instructions such as keep weight off of the injuries body part through the use of crutches or other supports which will be provided by the clinic.
