My doctor said it should heal fully but she couldn t say when. will these tendons go away completely or will they always be visible the doctors said they woul go away completely.
As first-line management, you can take analgesics like paracetamol or aceclofenac for pain relief. If symptoms persist, it is better to consult a physician and get evaluated.
