The non-surgical management of isolated medial collateral ligament injuries of the knee

Bradley F Giannotti et al. Sports Med Arthrosc Rev. 2006 Jun.

Abstract

The medial collateral ligament is the most commonly injured ligament in the knee. All isolated grade I and II tears and most grade III tears can be treated nonoperatively with a supervised, functional, rehabilitation program. Good to excellent results can be expected with return to full preinjury activity level being the norm.
