Knee ligament injury symptoms?

First: medial collateral ligament injury: is the most common type of knee ligament injury. For those with partial tears, the knee can be bent for 10 minutes ° The patients were fixed with long leg cast for 6 weeks. The patients with complete rupture should be sutured and fixed with plaster tube for 6 weeks after operation. After removing the plaster, functional exercises should be carried out gradually.

Second: anterior and posterior cruciate ligament injury: this kind of ligament injury is often combined with avulsion fracture. For non displaced avulsion fractures, long leg cast in functional position can be used for 6 weeks. The patients with avulsion fracture and posterior cruciate ligament rupture should be treated early.

Third: lateral collateral ligament injury: because of the protection of biceps femoris and iliotibial tract, even when the ligament is completely broken, as long as there is no complication of common peroneal nerve sprain, conservative treatment can be used. You can fix it with plaster splint for 6 weeks, then practice knee joint activity, and then try to walk on the ground. Even those with Chen positive rupture rarely need surgical treatment.
