The Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) is one of the major ligaments that stabilizes the knee joint. It helps control forward movement and rotational stability of the knee during activities such as running, jumping, cutting, and pivoting.
An ACL injury occurs when the ligament is stretched, partially torn, or completely ruptured. ACL injuries are commonly seen in athletes participating in soccer, basketball, football, volleyball, skiing, and other sports involving sudden changes in direction.
Without proper rehabilitation, ACL injuries can lead to ongoing knee instability, reduced performance, and increased risk of future injuries.
Symptoms often occur immediately after the injury.
Common symptoms include:
The severity of symptoms depends on the extent of ligament damage.
Several situations can place excessive stress on the ACL.
Common causes include:
A detailed physiotherapy assessment helps determine the severity of the injury and develop an appropriate rehabilitation plan.
