The knee is stabilized by several important ligaments. Two of the most commonly injured are:
ACL (Anterior Cruciate Ligament) — located in the center of the knee, it controls forward and rotational movement of the tibia.
MCL (Medial Collateral Ligament) — located on the inner side of the knee, it stabilizes the knee against sideways forces.
Tears or sprains of these ligaments often happen during sports, accidents, or sudden twisting movements. Prompt diagnosis and the right treatment are key to restoring knee stability and preventing long-term damage.
| Treatment Type | Description | When Recommended | Benefits |
|---|---|---|---|
| Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation (RICE) | Immediate first aid to reduce swelling and pain | Minor sprains or pre-surgery care | Eases symptoms, prevents further damage |
| Bracing & Crutches | Supports the knee and limits movement while healing | Mild MCL injuries or temporary stabilization | Protects the ligament, aids healing |
| Physical Therapy | Exercises to strengthen muscles, restore range of motion, and improve balance | Mild tears or after surgery | Improves stability, reduces re-injury risk |
| ACL Reconstruction Surgery | Replacing the torn ACL with a graft (from patient or donor tissue) | Complete ACL tears in active individuals | Restores knee function and stability |
| MCL Repair or Reconstruction | Surgical repair of a torn MCL, sometimes combined with ACL surgery | Severe MCL injuries or multi-ligament tears | Corrects alignment and stability |
| Rehabilitation | Ongoing therapy after surgery to regain strength and confidence | Essential post-surgery | Ensures full recovery and safe return to activities |
