LATERAL COLLATERAL LIGAMENT INJURIES: CAUSES, SYMPTOMS AND TREATMENTS
LCL (lateral collateral ligament) is a ligament, which runs along the outside of the knee. It helps keep your bones together so that your knee joint stays stable when you move.
If your lateral collateral ligament is stretched or torn, how you feel and what type of treatment you’ll need depends on how badly you’ve been injured. You will need medical recovery when you have an injury to your lateral collateral ligament. If it is a total tear of the lateral collateral ligaments, surgery may be needed.
CAUZE
The main cause of LCL injuries is direct force trauma to the inside of the knee. This puts pressure on the outside of the knee and causes the LCL to stretch or tear.
SIMPTOME
The symptoms of a lateral collateral ligament injury can be mild or severe, depending on the severity of the sprain or whether it is torn. If the ligament is slightly ingrained, you may have no symptoms at all. For a partial tear or a complete ligament tear, your symptoms may include:
knee swelling (especially the outside of the knee)
stiffness in the knee joint that can cause knee lock
pain on the outside of the knee
knee joint instability
