An ACL injury is a relatively common knee injury especially for athletes. Treatment depends on the severity of the injury and the needs of the patient.

Most MCL injuries can be treated with rest, ice, anti-inflammatory medicine and other nonsurgical treatments. However, severe tears may require surgery.

Many times a PCL tear occurs in conjunction with injuries to other structures in the knee such as cartilage, ligaments, menisci and bone.
