What do Derrick Rose of the Chicago Bulls, Ricky Rubio of the Minnesota Timberwolves, UFC Mixed Martial Arts superstar Georges St. Pierre and my husband Mickey Villa (my Michael Jordan) have in common? The answer: They have all incurred an ACL (Anterior Cruciate Ligament) injuries.
An anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury is usually caused by a
sudden twisting motion in the knee when an athlete lands or steps. You could opt to not have it repaired, but if you still want to engage in sports,
or want to have a full life without constantly worrying that you might
accidentally twist your knee, you might want to
consider undergoing knee reconstruction surgery.
