Soft tissue injuries are very common in sport/physical activity and recovery timelines can take anywhere from 10 days – 16 weeks. These timelines are decided using physical assessment and understanding of muscle-tendon complex injury healing but, in the case of lower limb injuries, can be aided with an MRI of the area. The radiologists who interpret the scan results will often use the BAMIC system to identify the area and grade of the injury which can help in determining return to play timelines.
