Complete series +1 and the most common knee injuries in football players
After Hamza Diab suffered a knee injury, in the full series +1, we learn about the most famous knee injuries
According to the rebound website, the knee joint is considered one of the largest and most complex joints in the body, and it is also one of the most important joints. The femur connects to the shin bone, and plays an important role in supporting the body’s weight and facilitating movement – allowing you to bend your knee.
Due to the complexity of the knee joint, it is vulnerable to a number of different injuries. Some of the most common knee joint injuries include tears of ligaments, tendons, and cartilage. The knee itself can also be fractured or dislocated
Fractions
The patella serves as armor for your knee joint, protecting it from injury or damage during a fall. For this reason, the patella can fracture during a hard fall or sports injury.
Patellar fractures are a common but serious injury that usually requires immobilization or, in some cases, surgery to correct.
Knee dislocation
Knee dislocation occurs when the bones in the knee become out of place. This can happen after major trauma such as a fall or high-speed impact. It can also be caused by twisting the kneecap while one foot is firmly planted on the ground. Sometimes, the kneecap will automatically correct itself and return to normal. Its correct position. Other cases require light sedation to allow the doctor to move the knee without causing too much pain. Full recovery from a knee dislocation usually takes about six weeks.
Anterior cruciate ligament injuries
The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is a tissue in the knee that connects the upper and lower leg bones together and helps keep the knee stable.
The anterior cruciate ligament can tear if the lower leg extends forward too much or if the leg becomes twisted.
Anterior cruciate ligament injuries are one of the most common types of knee injuries and represent approximately 40% of all sports-related injuries.
An ACL injury can range from a small tear in the ligament to a serious injury – when the ligament is completely torn or separated from the bone itself.
Treatment options for anterior cruciate ligament injuries depend on the extent of the injury.
Not all ACL injuries require surgery, but depending on various factors including the severity of the tear, surgery may be required. Physical rehabilitation is often recommended after an anterior cruciate ligament injury.
Posterior cruciate ligament injuries
The posterior cruciate ligament connects the femur to the tibia and prevents the tibia from moving too far back. As the name suggests, this ligament is located at the back of the knee.
A posterior cruciate ligament injury occurs when there is trauma to the knee, and this can happen in sports when an athlete lands on a bent knee.
If the damage is limited to the posterior cruciate ligament only, treatment is generally non-surgical. But if there is a combination of injuries such as knee dislocation and multiple ligament tears, surgery may be needed.
Collateral ligament injuries
The collateral ligament is one of the four major ligaments in the knee.
Collateral ligament injury is a common sports-related injury. This ligament can be easily torn when the lower leg is pushed to the side.
Surgery may not be needed if the collateral ligament is torn. However, if other structures in the knee are affected at the same time, surgery is generally recommended.
Meniscus tear
The meniscus is the piece of cartilage located between the knee joint that helps absorb shock that occurs when running or exercising. The pieces help protect the joint and maintain stability.
Meniscus tears are common in sports that require jumping, such as volleyball and soccer, as well as contact sports such as soccer. When a person suddenly changes direction while running, the meniscus can tear.
Surgery may be required, depending on the extent of the injury and the severity of the tear.
