Knee Ligament Injuries

About this condition

Ligament injuries such as those of the ACL and MCL usually follow a twist or a direct blow, causing swelling and a sense of instability. Treatment depends on which ligament is involved and how active you want to be.

What you may notice

A twist or sudden stop leaves the knee swollen and unsteady, as seen with ACL and other ligament injuries.

How we help

Examination and MRI, followed by rehabilitation, or ligament reconstruction when the knee keeps giving way.

This page is general information. The right option depends on your examination and scans, so please book a consultation for advice on your own case.
