Unlocking the Secrets of ACL Injuries

Introduction

ACL (anterior cruciate ligament) injuries are a big problem, especially for athletes who jump, pivot, and change direction quickly. Female athletes are more likely to suffer from ACL injuries. Many things can increase the risk, but one important factor is the shape of the tibial plateau, the top part of the shinbone where the knee joint sits. The way the knee is shaped, and the forces applied to it, can affect how much stress is put on the ACL. Understanding these risk factors can help prevent injuries, especially for female athletes.
