ACL Injury

The anterior cruciate is a ligament just inside the knee joint. This is the most common injury in sports that involve sudden stops and changes in direction (basketball, soccer, tennis). Immediate symptoms of an ACL injury is swelling, pain, and inability to walk and bear weight on the knee. Others might feel a pop when the injury occurs. Depending on how serious the knee injury is, a person might need surgery for the ligament and to stay of the knee for several months. Rehabilitation might also be needed to get the knee functioning as normal as possible as well.
