@armin.phys1o: An ACL tear might be the reason why your knee is giving way or collapsing. The Anterior Curciate Ligament is a ligament inside the knee joint that prevents anterior translation of your tibia. In other words it prevents the lower part of your knee from hyperextending. It can get injured when the knee hyperextends, excessively rotates, or from general trauma to the knee. Common signs and symptoms to note that you have injured your ACL is noticing the knee feels like it’s collapsing or giving way. You will feel lots of laxity in the knee and instability. If you have suffered such an injury and expect an ACL tear, it’s critical you get things checked out. If you have a complete tear of the ligament and are generally an active person and want to return to full activity, surgery might be the best option. If you’ve only sprained it (slight or moderate tear, but still intact) you can definitely rehab it with a proper exercise program and protocol. Try the exercises in this video regardless. The exercises will all help strengthen the knee and put you on the path for recovery. Share this with someone who needs it! Do not hesitate to ask any questions you might have in the comments below, it would be my pleasure to help support and provide answers! #acl #aclrecovery #aclsurgery #aclinjury #aclrehab
