Today’s video covers recovery exercises for the lateral collateral ligament or LCL. The LCL is located on the outside of the knee and connects the thigh bone (femur) to one of the bones of the lower leg (fibula).
This ligament can be stretched and/or torn when the knee undergoes stress that pushes the knee outward (varus stress), which is more common in contact sports such as football or soccer. Common symptoms include pain and swelling at the outside of the knee and a feeling of instability with certain movements.
Rehab from this condition should focus on regaining mobility initially and then transition to strength and movement control exercises designed to protect the lateral joint line. If you have experienced this injury, give these exercises a try.
*My new book contains comprehensive rehab programs for the 50 most common injuries and pain issues, including knee ligament injuries and can be ordered with the Amazon and Barnes & Noble Links below.

I can’t wait to add these to my daily physio! These all look so beneficial. I’m recovering from a meniscus tear but also have something funky going on with my lcl of the same knee. I think these will help both

@@raghavsharma9838I have a old acl and meniscus injury that I am recovering from. I did have two surgeries some years ago, but after the second surgery I ended up in a bad headspace and didn't bother to recover. Time alone does not help, so action is needed. First off, you need to find the source of what you are experiencing. Maybe your muscles are unbalanced, or you lack mobility, or high muscle tension, or they are not enough used. I would search for professional help through scanning with MRI first, and if no surgery is needed you'll frequently go to physical therapy. A knee should not make noises, and especially not hurt.

@spiercevaughn 7 месяцев назад

Cool video! I looked this up because I was rock climbing yesterday and had an aggressive heel hook on a hold I was pulling hard into the wall while the foot rotated and I felt and heard a loud pop noise, and after looking it up I’m pretty sure it was my LCL. I’ll try some of these exercises

@RehabScience 29 дней назад

It depends on the grade of the injury and the severity of your symptoms. If an exercise can be completed with mild or less pain and no joint instability, then it is usually fine to incorporate.

@pleatedskirt18 7 месяцев назад

Thank you for the video, it is a great help and source of information. However, may I ask a question? I damaged my knee by falling off a gate and catching my foot on the other side to my body, thus bending my knee sideways - yes, it did hurt. As it is now slowly getting better, and no longer needs any daily support, I was wondering if you think cycling on a turbo trainer, or keeping it warm and cycling on roads would be an acceptable form of exercise? Happy New Year, and thanks once again.

Beginning April, i had a knee to knee collision playing soccer and heard a loud pop and wasn’t able to walk for 2-3 days, docter said it was a lcl injury now it’s june and the pain has lessened. I can run moderately ,get on with my day by day but one wrong movement brings back a immense pain. Any recommendations?

Yesterday, I was out with my son's dog, and due to another dog's presence whom didnt get along with other large male dogs..according to the owner....it began. He barked and our dog lunged ,glad I was next to a pole that I could hang onto!! unfortunately the lunge directly got my left LCL area. Needless to say I hobbled home, barely..thankfully it was right next door. . Very painful. No sensitivity on either side of front knee cap so I dont think theres a tear. Just cant move my knee to the right. So, Im hoping these will help. If theres any others , please post a link. Ice, heat, advil and these for now. The calf muscle is stiff and sore too.

@RehabScience 2 месяца назад

I’m sorry to hear about your injury. Besides the exercise in this video, I would also recommend implementing the mobility exercises in the video below. Make sure to only move as far as you can without pain and your knee should desensitize gradually with time. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-u7W10eo0BIk.htmlsi=81cSMqhJzThtzR6f

Every time you started rotating your knee side to side standing on one leg my anxiety shot through the roof lmao, im going to try these because my LCL defintely got somewhat sprained and i feel the pain almost feeling as if its shooting down the calf from that outside of the knee area that almost pulses when im carrying something heavy, my brain wants to then hyperfocus on keeping the leg straight, so glad my body knew already how to manage hurting it more

Thanks for the video! Today I was stretching a heard a loud pop in the pigeon pose. There’s no swelling but a little tender. How can you know if it’s a ligament sprain or tear?

@RehabScience 6 месяцев назад

Glad the video was helpful! Ligament tears require considerable force (sprinting and cutting, jumping and leg gets twisted, etc), so it's most likely that you sustained a grade 1 sprain (the least serious version) since it happened while stretching (less force on the tissue).

@ambrr_lily 5 месяцев назад

After decades of yoga (mostly Vinyasa and some Bikram) I noticed I could no longer hold the longer yin poses without ligaments slipping and feeling unstable. So I stopped. But now, I've had to stop yoga and regularly injure my LCL (to the point of not bearing weight) because the ligaments are too loose, or that's how it feels. I would encourage you to strengthen strengthen strengthen all the quads, hamstrings and calves VERY intentionally keeping the knee straight in the midline. Otherwise, I'm your future. Really deepening those stretches and opening the hips feels so good, but those joints need lots of appreciation as you get older.

@RehabScience 3 месяца назад

It’s difficult for me to say without knowing more details and evaluating you. It may be that you are experiencing a bit of intra-articular (inside the joint) swelling.

@RehabScience 6 месяцев назад

These would be implemented once you are cleared for rehab. There are different grades of ligament sprains. Individuals with grade I injuries are not placed in a brace and usually can begin these very soon after their injury. Grade II and III injuries wouldn’t begin these right away.

Is LCL injury permanent

@RehabScience 4 месяца назад

It depends on the grade of injury. If the ligament is severely stretched (grade II) or fully torn (grade III), then it will most likely not heal back to normal and some joint instability will be permanent. Grade I injuries usually return to normal.
