What is a ligament injury?
A ligament is a tissue connecting one bone to another bone. The knee joint has four ligaments working to hold your knee joint stable – one in the front (Anterior Cruciate Ligament or ACL), one in the back (Posterior Cruciate Ligament or PCL), one on the inside (Medial Collateral Ligament or MCL), and one on the outside (Lateral Collateral Ligament or LCL).
The ACL and MCL are the most commonly injured of the four ligaments. The typical injury occurs during a fall, a sudden change in direction, an awkward landing, or after a direct blow. So it's no wonder why ligament injuries tend to happen during soccer, downhill skiing, basketball, and football.
Symptoms of a ligament injury include:
-
Immediate pain
-
Hearing a popping sound
-
Swelling around the knee
-
Difficulty weight bearing
