What are ACL injuries?
ACL injuries occur commonly among people who perform high-impact sports such as basketball, football, and soccer. According to an American study, most ACL injuries happen without the involvement of another player. These injuries occur mainly when the player twists or pivots. In the US, orthopedic surgeons perform more than 200,000 ACL reconstructions yearly.
