How long does it take for myelin sheath to grow?
There are generally accepted three mechanisms of repair: remyelination, collateral sprouting, and axon regrowth. In neurapraxic lesions, Schwann cells must de-differentiate to a stage where cell division is possible to proliferate and make new myelin, and this stage may take three months.
