Severe Knee Pain! Risk of Torn Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL)

The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is one of the main ligaments in the knee, located deep in the center of the joint. It helps stabilize the knee during movement. ACL tears can occur due to knee twisting during a collision or impact, jumping or quickly lifting the leg, tight and inflexible or weak muscles, which can lead to knee injury.

When the ACL is torn, you may hear a popping sound in the joint, experience pain, noticeable swelling, and internal bleeding in the knee. It is crucial to consult a specialist immediately. Delayed treatment may lead to premature knee degeneration.

To diagnose an ACL tear, the doctor will take a medical history, perform a physical exam, X-ray, or MRI scan. Treatment depends on the severity of the injury. In most cases, once the ACL is torn, the tension within the ligament causes both ends to retract, preventing natural healing. Arthroscopic surgery is a preferred option among patients for treating a torn ACL.
