Can ligament laxity be cured?

Ligaments are fibrous connective tissues with a certain degree of elasticity and toughness and are found in many parts of the body. Commonly, ligament laxity is found in the joints of the limbs, which is mainly caused by trauma, long-term high load on the joints and other factors that cause different degrees of laxity. For ligament laxity of degree I and II, conservative treatment is usually adopted, such as local braking and resting with a brace or plaster, local physical therapy such as low and medium frequency electrotherapy and magnetic therapy, and pain medication when accompanied by pain.
