Didn't find the answer you are looking for?
Talk to experienced orthopedist online and get your health questions answered in just 5 minutes.
Continue muscle strengthening and work on the physio. The results take quite some time to be obvious. As long as your symptoms are getting better do not rely completely on MRI, as the MRI picture takes some time to catch up with the clinical picture.
Gels or other medicines will only help with pain but not healing on the tendon. You need to give it time and be patient.
