Lateral Collateral Ligament Injuries

Lateral collateral ligament (LCL) injuries are common among athletes and individuals engaged in physical activities that involve lateral movements, such as football, basketball, and skiing. The LCL is one of the key ligaments stabilising the knee joint, connecting the femur (thigh bone) to the fibula (the smaller bone of the lower leg). Injury to this ligament can lead to pain, instability, and decreased function of the knee. At Brisbane Physiotherapy, we provide comprehensive care for LCL injuries, focusing on rehabilitation and recovery.
