A lateral collateral ligament (LCL) tear is a knee injury that seldom happens in isolation. The force that causes it is usually so big that something else also gets injured. Sports physio Maryke Louw explains how the LCL typically gets injured, what the symptoms are, how the injury is diagnosed and graded, what the treatment options are, and what the recovery times might be under various circumstances.
