ACL Injury
Causes
Injury to your ACL usually happens during sporting activities. It can tear especially when you slow down suddenly to change direction or pivot on a planted foot. This twists or overextends your knee resulting in injury to your ACL. Some sports which are more likely to result in an ACL tear are soccer, basketball, martial arts and gymnastics. This is because they involve running with included sharp turns, jumping and pivoting.
