Ligaments don’t have alot of blood vessels that limits the amount of nutrients it can get to heal. But given a long enough timeframe they will heal on their own, however outside of mild damage people are likely to injure it again prior to completion of the healing process which leads to assistance being needed as it’s just a big QOL boost.
