ACL Tears Treatment

An ACL tear is a serious knee ligament injury that commonly affects athletes and active individuals, often causing immediate swelling and instability. Dr. Sanjay Rawat offers advanced ACL tear treatment in Indore, including ACL reconstruction surgery for a safe return to sport.

About ACL Tears Treatment

The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is a key stabilizing structure in the knee that prevents excessive forward movement of the shin bone. It is commonly injured during sports involving sudden stops, jumps, or direction changes, such as football, basketball, and badminton. An ACL tear often occurs alongside meniscus or other ligament injuries, making a thorough evaluation essential to plan the most appropriate treatment.

Symptoms of ACL Tears Treatment

• A loud pop at the time of injury
• Immediate swelling within hours
• Severe pain and inability to continue activity
• A feeling of knee instability or giving way
• Reduced range of motion due to swelling

Causes of ACL Tears Treatment

• Sudden deceleration or direction change in sports
• Landing awkwardly from a jump
• Direct blow to the knee during contact sports
• Pivoting with the foot planted on the ground
• Pre-existing muscle weakness or poor landing mechanics

Diagnosis
