Dr. Rockwood, Jr.:
It has to go very slow and very easy. You cannot force the rehabilitation. If the tendons are okay, it is just going to take time to get over a sprain, just like a athlete would do if he sprained his knee ligaments or has a hamstring pull. You know, it just takes time to get over that, and I think that, that’s usually what we see and what we do for women.
