What are Ligament Injuries?
Ligaments are tough, fibrous tissues that stabilize joints by connecting bones to each other. A Ligament Injury happens when these tissues are overstretched or torn due to excessive force or abnormal joint movement.
Ligament injuries commonly affect the knee, ankle, shoulder, and elbow joints and range from mild sprains to complete tears requiring surgical treatment.
