An ACL injury is when the anterior cruciate ligament—one of the main ligaments that helps stabilize the knee—gets stretched, torn, or completely ruptured. This often causes a “popping” sound, swelling, pain, and knee instability, especially during sports or sudden movements.
If not treated, an ACL injury can lead to ongoing knee instability, more damage to other parts of the knee (like cartilage or meniscus), and long-term joint problems like arthritis.
