A ligament tear occurs when the strong, fibrous tissue connecting bones at a joint is overstretched or ruptured, often due to trauma, sports injury, or sudden twisting. Depending on severity, it may range from mild sprain to complete rupture, leading to pain, swelling, and joint instability. Early diagnosis and physiotherapy are vital for optimal recovery and preventing long-term complications.
