Is a torn posterior cruciate ligament serious?

A posterior cruciate ligament rupture is a serious condition.
If the posterior cruciate ligament is ruptured, it will cause the joint to lose protection, the stability of the joint will become poorer, and the calf will slide backward excessively, which will affect the normal function of the patient’s joint movement.
When posterior cruciate ligament rupture occurs, you can first choose the conservative treatment method of plaster immobilization for 4~6 weeks. If the conservative treatment fails, it needs to be treated by surgery.
After surgery, the patient should be immobilized for a period of time, and then under the guidance of the doctor to carry out the corresponding knee flexion and extension rehabilitation training, generally through the exercise can be restored to the normal activities of the knee joint, but we should pay attention to avoiding excessive fatigue, strenuous weight-bearing activities, and strenuous exercise.
