  1. Everything you need to know about ACL injuries

  2. The knee joint comprises three bones: the shinbone, thighbone, and patella. Maintaining the proper alignment of these bones are four ligaments, while tendons connect the bones to muscles. Additionally, cartilage plays a crucial role as a shock absorber and facilitates smooth movement. Among the four ligaments, the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is one of two that form a cross shape within the knee. It connects the thighbone to the shinbone and plays a vital role in providing stability to the knee joint. Damage to the ACL is a relatively common, significant, and often painful knee injury that can impact mobility and overall knee function.
