Understanding ACL Injuries: When Is Surgery the Right Choice?

Wednesday 27 January | 18:00 - 19:00

An anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury can affect your knee's stability, confidence in movement and ability to enjoy everyday activities. Whether you've recently torn your ACL or have been living with ongoing knee instability, understanding your treatment options can help you make an informed decision about your next steps.

Join Mr Andrew Armitage, a Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon with a specialist orthopaedic interest in the knee, to explore ACL injuries, when surgery may be recommended and what to expect from treatment and recovery.

He will discuss:

  • What happens when you tear your ACL?
  • Can an ACL injury heal without surgery?
  • How do you know if you need ACL reconstruction?
  • What does ACL surgery involve?
  • What can you expect from recovery and rehabilitation?

Plus, there will be an opportunity to submit questions during the session for Mr Armitage to address during a Q&A segment.

The ACL is one of the important ligaments that stabilise your knee. If you have torn (ruptured) this ligament, the knee can collapse or give way when making twisting or turning movements. You may also find that you are unable to fully extend your leg, impacting your mobility.
