The Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) is one of the key ligaments that stabilizes the knee joint. ACL injuries are common among athletes and active individuals, often occurring due to sudden changes in direction, twisting motions, or direct impact to the knee. Understanding the causes, treatment options, and recovery strategies can help you get back to your activities safely and efficiently. What is an ACL Injury? An ACL injury typically involves a partial or complete tear of the ligament, which connects the thigh bone (femur) to the shin bone (tibia). Symptoms often include: A popping sound at the time of injury Sudden pain and swelling Knee instability or “giving way” Reduced range of motion ACL injuries can range from mild sprains to complete tears, and the severity often determines the treatment approach. Causes of ACL Injuries ACL injuries commonly occur in sports that involve jumping, pivoting, or sudden stops, such as soccer, basketball, skiing, and football. Other factors that increase the risk include: Improper landing techniques during jumps Muscle imbalances or weakness around the knee Previous knee injuries Playing on uneven surfaces or poor footwear Photo by CDC / Unsplash Treatment Options Treatment depends on the severity of the injury, patient activity level, and lifestyle goals: Conservative Treatment: For partial tears or low-activity individuals, rest, physical therapy, and bracing may be sufficient.
