Ligament Healing

Meaning

Ligament healing is the complex biological and biomechanical process by which injured or torn ligaments, the dense bands of connective tissue stabilizing joints, undergo repair and regeneration. This process involves a predictable sequence of inflammatory, proliferative, and remodeling phases aimed at restoring the structural integrity and mechanical function of the joint. Complete restoration of original strength is often a long-term clinical goal.
