[|AI|]  Dear patient you seem to have torn cruciate ligaments most likely anterior cruciate ligament. Both anterior and posterior cruciate ligaments are present in the joint and helps in maintaining stability of the joint. If not of them is torn there will be instability. Diagnosis needs to be confirmed by MRI of the involved knee. It is very specific and sensitive for diagnosis of soft tissue injuries. Please get it done from radiology center nearby you. Meanwhile, start use of Long knee extension brace while walking. You need to consult arthroscopy surgeon nearby your area with report.
