Maxwell is projected to be out of action for around a month due to a hamstring tear. The recovery duration for hamstring injuries can vary significantly based on their severity:
- Grade 1 Strain: A mild strain that generally heals within 3 to 5 days.
- Grade 2 Strain: A partial tear that typically requires 2 to 6 weeks for recovery.
- Grade 3 Strain: A complete tear that can take several months to heal and may necessitate surgical intervention.
Given that Maxwell’s injury is classified as a tear, it is likely categorized as either Grade 2 or Grade 3, which corresponds with the expected recovery timeline of approximately one month. Standard recovery protocols include the RICE method—rest, ice, compression, and elevation—along with a gradual introduction of rehabilitation exercises aimed at restoring strength and flexibility while minimizing the risk of reinjury.
