Ligament Tear

A ligament tear is an injury involving the stretching or tearing of ligaments, which are strong bands of tissue that connect bones to each other and stabilize joints. Ligament tears are common in sports and can occur in various parts of the body, such as the knees, ankles, wrists, and shoulders.

Grade I (Mild)

Slight stretching and microscopic tears of the ligament fibers.

Grade II (Moderate)

Partial tearing of the ligament, resulting in looseness in the joint.
