Cruciate ligament damage

There are two types of cruciate ligaments: anterior (ACL) and posterior (PCL). They connect the thigh bone (femur) to the shin bone (tibia). Posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) is tougher and longer than the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL). However they are also ruptured even though the occurrence is far less. Causes: PCL injury is caused primarily when an intense impact is felt while the knee is in a bent position.
  1. Knee striking against the dashboard during a vehicle accident
  2. Falling on the knee
  3. Injuries caused in sports and games
Such injuries are associated with mild to extremely severe pain, swelling and knee instability. PCL injury could lead to osteoarthritis over a period of time.
