ACL Ligament Surgery In Jamshedpur 

Different Kinds of ACL Ligament and Related Injuries

ACL or Anterior Cruciate ligament is a tissue band inside your knee. It holds your knee in its place and supports your movements. But stressing your ACL, like abrupt stopping, suddenly changing direction, and wrong landing after a jump can cause it to tear or get damaged. People involved in sports or other related fields are prone to ACL ligament injuries. ACL injury divides into different kinds depending on the type of ACL tear. Here is a list of different types of ACL injuries.

ACL Avulsion Fracture – ACL Avulsion Fracture is different from ACL sprain. In ACL Avulsion Fracture, the ACL tears by breaking off a piece of bone (attached to the ACL) that connects the knee with the thigh or leg. In most ACL avulsion fractures, the leg bone has more chances of getting injured than the thigh bone. ACL avulsion fracture in the leg tears the ACL by breaking off a piece of the shinbone where the ACL was attached. 

ACL avulsion fracture can result from muscular contraction or overuse of ACL ligament. 

Sprain – ACL sprain is the most common type of ligament injury. A sprain occurs when the ligament is excessively stressed. In severe cases, the ACL ligament can be completely ruptured. Based on the severity, ACL sprains classify into three grades. 

Grade 1 

Grade 1 ACL sprains are one of the most common ACL injuries. Generally, grade 1 ACL sprains are mild and do not require surgical intervention. In the grade 1 sprain, the ACL is stressed due to overuse of the ligament but does not get torn. In these cases, patients may face slight pain and tenderness in the knee, difficulty in knee movement, and light swell on the knee. Ice-pack, rest, pain medication, and crutches can treat grade 1 sprains.

Grade 2

Grade 2 ACL sprains are more severe than grade 1. In this kind of injury, the fiber of the ligament gets partially or completely torn due to excessive stress on the knee. Most of the grade 2 sprain cases are completely torn tissues. This type of sprain also has similar symptoms to grade 1, but they are more severe, and unlike grade 1 sprain, it involves instability. You can feel your knee is giving away if the tissues of the ACL get torn. Not all grade 2 sprain requires surgery; it depends on the severity of the injury. We suggest ACL ligament surgery in Jamshedpur if you feel partial or complete instability in the knee. 

Grade 3

Grade 3 ACL sprains are very common in sports people. In grade 3 sprain, the ACL is completely torn and becomes two different parts. The symptoms of grade 3 sprain are severe pain, instability, immediate swell, and tenderness in the knee. In rare cases, there can be no pain and swelling for grade 3 sprains. We at SportsMed, generally recommend reconstruction surgery to repair the ACL. 

ACL deficient knee – In these cases, ACL is not present in the knee. The symptoms of ACL deficiency are knee buckling or sensation of knee buckling. We recommend ACL surgery in Jamshedpur, especially for young patients with ACL deficiency.

Multi-ligament injury – Multi-ligament injury is the most complicated ACL injury where the ACL gets torn along with the cartilage ligament and Meniscus. In these cases, we recommend surgery to repair the injury.
