What are the signs and symptoms of a possible ACL tear?
The famous "pop" is the most telling symptom of an ACL injury, although you may have a tear without ever experiencing the pop. The injury is usually followed by considerable pain and swelling within the first several hours. You may develop a feeling of instability in the knee or "giving way", making walking difficult.
What should I do if I think I have an ACL tear?
Immediately after an injury think RICE: Rest Ice Compression Elevation. Then see your doctor.
