What is PCL Tear?

A PCL (Posterior Cruciate Ligament) tear is a knee injury that occurs when the ligament at the back of the knee is damaged. It commonly results from direct impact to the knee, such as road accidents, falls, or sports injuries.

The PCL is responsible for stabilising the knee and preventing the shin bone from moving backwards. When injured, it can lead to pain, swelling, and instability. Mild cases may heal with physiotherapy, while severe injuries may require arthroscopic reconstruction to restore proper knee function.
