What is an ACL Tear? | Patient Education | MedBridge

An ACL tear refers to a tear or rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), which is one of the major ligaments in the knee. The ACL is located in the center of the knee and helps provide stability to the joint, particularly during movements such as jumping, pivoting, and changing direction. ACL tears often occur during sports activities that involve sudden stops, changes in direction, or direct blows to the knee. When the ACL is torn, it can result in symptoms such as severe pain, swelling, instability in the knee, and difficulty bearing weight on the affected leg. Treatment for an ACL tear may vary depending on the severity of the injury and the individual's activity level and lifestyle goals. Rehabilitation and post-operative care are crucial for restoring strength, mobility, and function to the knee after an ACL tear.
