What is an LCL Sprain?

An LCL Sprain is an injury to the lateral collateral ligament, a band of tissue on the outer side of the knee that connects the thigh bone (femur) to the lower leg bone (fibula). The LCL stabilises the knee, preventing it from bending outward. An LCL sprain occurs when this ligament is stretched or torn, typically due to a sudden impact or awkward twist.

Recovering from an LCL Sprain

Are You Struggling with Pain and Instability from an LCL Sprain?

Living with an LCL sprain can make daily activities challenging, as pain and instability may limit your ability to walk, bend, or participate in physical activities. You may feel frustrated by the knee’s weakness and worried about re-injury or prolonged recovery. With the right approach, you can reduce symptoms, strengthen your knee, and return to your active lifestyle.

LCL Sprains are Limiting – But Recovery is Possible

LCL sprains present unique physical and emotional challenges:

  • Physical Limitations: Pain, instability, and weakness on the outer knee that interfere with movement and exercise.
  • Emotional Impact: Frustration with restricted mobility, concerns about future knee stability, and a desire for quick and effective recovery.
  • Fairness: Everyone deserves access to compassionate care that helps them recover from ligament injuries, regain stability, and prevent future knee issues.
