What is ACL Sprain?
An ACL (anterior cruciate ligament) sprain is an injury that affects the anterior cruciate ligament, which is one of the major ligaments in the knee joint. The ACL is responsible for providing stability to the knee by preventing excessive forward movement of the shinbone (tibia) relative to the thighbone (femur).
An ACL sprain occurs when the ligament is stretched, partially torn, or completely torn due to sudden twisting motions, direct impact to the knee, or rapid changes in direction during activities like sports. This type of injury is common in athletes and individuals who engage in high-impact activities.
Symptoms of an ACL sprain can include pain, swelling, instability, and limited range of motion in the knee. The severity of the sprain is often categorized as mild, moderate, or severe, depending on the extent of ligament damage.
Treatment for an ACL sprain varies based on the severity of the injury. Mild cases might respond well to rest, ice, and physical therapy, while more severe cases might require surgical intervention followed by rehabilitation to restore knee stability and function.
