Have you gone to a doctor yet?  It might be a sprain or a strain.  That can take anywhere from a few weeks to a year to heal.  I would stay off of it, and use ice if it starts to hurt too badly.  20 minutes with the ice, and 1 hour without it.  Do not keep the ice on for too long, because that can cause damage in and of itself.  I hope you heal up soon, babe!

Well you should get clearance from a doctor before you start playing again.  Depending on how bad the sprain is it could be 4-12 weeks before it's 100% recovered, you may be able to play earlier with a brace and some painkillers.  Again check with a doctor (a sports specialist if you can).

I had a torn ACL many years ago. My doctor said that surgery was not necessary unless I was going to participate in some vigorous ativity. He made a mold of my leg so as to fashion a brace. If I recall correctly, it took about six weeks to two months before I began to feel normal. If I was engaged in high impact or twisting type motion, I would be sure to wear a brace. Rehab also helped. Now, many years later - no ill effects. In addition, I had also torn the medial collateral ligament as well. I'm going from memory so I hope that all the information is correct. Good luck with your recovery.

The bone takes 6 to 8 weeks to heal.  The best way to stop the pain is to stop moving your leg (sorry, I know that's not what you want to hear).  Is your leg in a cast?  Make sure you elevate your leg above your heart (1-2 pillows is fine) to decrease swelling.  The more you try to move around now, the more swelling you're going to have and the more pain you're going to have.  Take it easy with anti-inflammatories (i.e. Advil, Aleve, etc) because they can slow down the healing process, which would be counterproductive.

I have the same problem, hurts on the side of my heel.  Hard to walk when I get up, but noticed the more I walk the less it hurts.  Dr. said it was tendonitis.  It was beginning to affect my calves as well, but I think that was more from changing my walking patterns to avoid the pain.  Just keep stretching your foot and rubbing it before you put weight on it.  Heat also helps.  If it gets severe, they can do surgery with a tendon lengthening, but try other alternatives first.  Might be bone spurs.  Some chiropractors can help with that by using ultrasound treatments.  Also cortisone injections help and make you feel like you're walking on cotton balls, but the injection itself hurts pretty bad, then total relieve for about a week then right back where you started.  See a doc if it doesn't resolve.  Mine went away on its on after about 3 weeks and after I bought a new pair of tennis shoes and wore them even in the house.  Don't go barefooted!  Hope this helped!!

I am not an expert but when my foot hurt like that it turned black and I had to wear a cast on my leg for 6-8 weeks. It turned out I had not only pulled one tendon but I had also tore one or two tendons on top of that. This happened a year ago when I was in the sixth grade. If it continues to hurt I would consult a physician. I hope your foot gets better and notify me to tell me what is actually wrong with it. It could be what happened to my foot but there are some other possibilities. Again hope you get better!!!

usually you can tape it to the toe next to it and it will heal in about 3-6 weeks

Torn?  Ooohh...probably not... i'd say stick with a doctor for something that serious...he/she can tell you what you should do to speed up recovery.

my girlfriend had it done the recovery did suck i won't lie ithink it took couple of weeks for it to go away completely but for the most part i would say probably about up to 2weeks for most of tenderness to go away now if your talking about being able to handle them say in four play then at least a month i believe if i remember correctly cause that was ten years ago

Basically you have 2 choices stop doing activities that cause you pain or have the surgery.  The surgery consists of a plastic screw being inserted into the shoulder, the tendon is then weaved into another piece of flat plastic that is then attached to the screw to hold the tendon into place.  The recuperation time is around 6 months and you'll need physical therapy during that time.  It takes along time to heal because there's no way to actually reattach the tendon permanently.  The plastic just holds it into place while the tendon reattaches itself to the bone.  The pain of the surgery can be quite intense but pain medication is provided.\nHope this  helps.

Well, you need to stop excercising until it feels better because if you dont, you are going to make the injury worse because you aren't allowing it time to heal. I use a method called the ice massage. Fill a paper or strofoam cup about half way up with water and freexe it. Once it is frozen, peel away the paper or styrofoam a little bit to reveal teh ice. Now, massage it onto your ankle without stopping for about 10 minutes. Your ankle should be completely numb by the time it is done. I have bad tendons in my ankle and have to do this everyday after I work out. It really does help heal the problem and prevent the pain.

Hate to tell you this, but normal recovery takes 6 months to one year.  Sorry!  Hope you feel better.

It will return to the normal size 95% of the time. It does take 4-10 weeks, depending on your healing abilities.

I think the timeline is somewhere like 3-6 months. You should probably wait a good while so your body has time to heal. Do what your doc recommends. Don't get anxious, take your time.

it depends on how bad the injury is and where its actually located,ideally rest in a sling for a period of 4-6 wks wud b required ,and then mobilization is mandatory,gentle exercises within the sling would be started within two weeks and a more strenous regime after the healing.

The coccyx or tail bone should heal like any other bone taking anywhere from a minimum of six weeks to three months.  The bone tissue is likely healed by now but the surrounding soft tissues may not.  Maybe some warm wet compresses such as a wet washcloth applied locally will provide anti-inflammatory relief.  Perform  the sit-ups to tolerance.
