ABSTRACT

Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury is one of the most common knee-related injuries, usually occurring in younger individuals during sports participation .Once ACL is disrupted, pain, effusion and atrophy are commonly observable and cause functional disability. Because of the functional limitations, athletic participation is severely restricted. Patients with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury have a high risk of developing PTOA(Post Traumatic Osteo Arthritis).Knowledge of the risk factors that lead to ACL tears can help to correctly diagnose knee injuries and is important to the development of prevention strategies for knee osteoarthritis. The signs and symptoms of ACL injuries  are much similar with that of Janumarmaabhigatha.
