Ligament Injury: What is ligament injury?

Ligament injury or ligament tear is a type of injury. A ligament is a tough band of fibrous tissue that connects two bones. It also connects bones with cartilage. Although ligaments are very strong, but due to strong shock or pressure, they can get hurt, which is also called tear. Players often have to face this type of injury. Ligament injuries usually occur in the ankle, knee, thumb, neck or back. Let us know the types of ligament injury, its symptoms and how to treat it.

Ligament injury is diagnosed with X-ray or MRI. It can be of three types:

  • Grade 1: The sprain is mild and the ligament is not damaged much.
  • Second grade: In this type of injury, the ligament tear is partial.
  • Third grade: This is a serious type of injury. In which the ligament is completely torn and there is a lot of pain.

Ligament Injury: What are the symptoms of ligament tear?

  2. Muscle cramps may be felt.
  3. Wherever the injury has occurred, there may also be swelling.
  4. There is a lot of difficulty in walking or moving that part.
