Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
You got the right treatment to prevent the inflammation. Such kind of injuries do sometime take even 12 to 16 weeks to heal completely. Complete range of movement is slow to return. You continue your physiotherapy and take mild pain killers for pain.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
