The ACL is one of the most commonly injured ligaments in the knee. Here's why it’s so vulnerable:
The Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) helps keep your knee stable by preventing your shin bone from sliding forward. It plays a key role during activities that involve sudden direction changes, jumping, or landing.
However, with forces reaching up to 2000N, it’s easy to see why athletes can get injured, especially with such high forces.
Common Signs of an ACL Injury:
⚡ A popping sound at the moment of injury
⚡ Immediate swelling around the knee
⚡ A feeling of instability or the knee "giving way"
⚡ Inability to continue playing or moving normally
If you’re experiencing these symptoms, it’s crucial to seek expert care right away.
