Posterior cruciate ligament injury

Symptoms

Posterior Cruciate ligament injury may include:

Mild to moderate pain in the knee
Rapid onset of knee swelling and tenderness (within three hours of the injury)
Pain with kneeling or squatting
A slight limp or difficulty walking
Feeling of instability or looseness in the knee, or the knee gives way during activities
Pain with running, slowing down, or walking up or down stairs or ramps
Most people with a posterior cruciate ligament injury don't feel a "pop" — the classic sign of an ACL tear — at the time of the injury. Signs and symptoms may be mild or vague, and you might not even notice anything wrong. Over time, the pain may worsen and your knee may feel more unstable. If other parts of the knee are affected, your signs and symptoms will likely be more severe.
