Healing Time
Most workout injuries heal within four weeks or less. If the injury persists or worsens after a week, seeking medical care is essential. Common sense plays a crucial roleāif you’re concerned about the injury, consulting with a medical professional is the wisest course of action.
Stay Active While Healing
While avoiding the activity that triggered the injury, staying active within the limits of your recovery is beneficial. Exploring alternative workouts that don’t strain the injured area can expedite healing. For example, if you sprain an ankle, focus on upper-body exercises until complete recovery.
