When you tear or injure your Anterior Cruciate Ligament,you will hear a sudden popping sound and there will be a moderate to severe pain, swelling and instability of the knee feeling kind of like "wobbly." Basically, knee brace and immobilization of the affected knee is necessary. Otherwise, continued activity on a knee with Anterior Cruciate Ligmant Injury can result into devastating consequences such as massive cartilage damage, leading to a high-risk of developing Osteoarthritis in later life.
