Description
Physiotherapy. Male patient undergoing treatment 1 year after surgery to reconstruct the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) in his knee. The ACL is one of the four major ligaments that hold the knee joint together. It joins the femur (thigh bone) to the tibia (shin bone) and is commonly injured while playing sport. Here, he is performing lunges with resistance from an elastic band in order to strengthen the knee joint.
