What is a PCL Injury?

A PCL Injury occurs when the posterior cruciate ligament, which stabilises the back of the knee, is stretched or torn. The PCL connects the thigh bone (femur) to the shinbone (tibia) and helps control backward movement of the knee. PCL injuries often result from a direct impact to the front of the knee, such as in sports or vehicle accidents, and can lead to pain, swelling, instability, and difficulty bearing weight.

Recovering from a PCL Injury

Are You Struggling with Pain and Instability from a PCL Injury?

Living with a PCL injury can make everyday activities challenging, as pain and knee instability may limit your ability to walk, climb stairs, or participate in physical activities. You may feel frustrated by restricted movement and unsure about how to manage the recovery process. With the proper support and guidance, you can reduce symptoms, strengthen your knee, and return to a confident, active lifestyle.

PCL Injuries Are Disruptive – But Recovery is Possible

A PCL injury brings unique physical and emotional challenges:

  • Physical Limitations: Pain, swelling, and knee instability that impact movement, mobility, and athletic performance.
  • Emotional Impact: Frustration from limited activity, concerns about re-injury, and a desire for a smooth and effective recovery process.
  • Fairness: Everyone deserves access to compassionate care that helps them heal, rebuild strength, and regain stability.
