Is a tear in a ligament worse than a tear in a tendon?
Tearing a ligament is usually fairly hard to do and quite painful. With therapy and pain management one can recuperate from it. Tearing a tendon is a bit easier to do but still quite painful. Again, it can often be managed with the right care. Thanks for using ChaCha!
