A torn Ligament is always a problem. Ligaments keep joints from sliding off each other, so you can think its quite important. Ligaments provide static stability - meaning when you're in a relaxed state, ligaments holds your joints in place while your muscles can relax. No wonder ligament pain is more prominent when you have to start moving. We take ligaments through a 6 week program, from Rest to Jumping up & down, throwing a ball at the end of weeks 6. This is called a early mobilization program where we progress as the tissue is able to hold up - without causing more damage. Most patients stick their arm in a sling and foot in a moonboot and hope for the best... That's so 50 years ago. No, please don't do that. Ligaments needs directional load to heal properly, do it right the first time and you won't have to worry about it ever again. Ask your expert Physiotherapist to help you and explain the steps you need to follow to get better.
Ligaments are the connective tissues that help to hold your joints in the correct position and resist excessive movement – they attach bone to bone on either side of a joint to provide stability.
