Can a torn thumb ligament be healed after 4 years?

So I only found out that I have torn a ligament in my thumb but it happened 3 or 4 years ago.

It just feels tight and sometimes it just feels annoying and out of place (which it kinda is??)

I've been to the physio before but it wasn't much help. I was told that I don't have a lot of pressure coming from the finger tips of my entire right hand and that my left hand is stronger than my right hand but I'm right handed

    soft tissue injury is very difficult to heal. you should ask to be referred to the hand clinic and have a full assessment, you might have nerve damage as well.

    Maybe to many variables to tell from here. It will require a lot of time and effort if it's possible because complications have been created and they also will need to be cleaned up.
