Twisted your knee playing sport? Heard a pop followed by pain or instability? You may have torn one of the key ligaments that stabilise your knee joint.
At Harrogate Knee Clinic, we offer expert diagnosis and treatment for knee ligament injuries—including the ACL, PCL, MCL, and LCL—from minor sprains to complete ruptures.

If you experience these symptoms, early assessment is crucial for the best outcome.
We begin with a detailed clinical examination and often recommend MRI scans to assess the type and severity of the ligament injury.
Damian will explain your diagnosis clearly and help you understand your treatment options—whether that’s physiotherapy, bracing, or surgical reconstruction.
Many mild ligament injuries can be managed with rest and rehabilitation. For more severe tears, especially ACL injuries, surgery may be necessary.
After surgery, most patients begin light movement within a few days, with a structured rehabilitation plan guided by our clinic and local physiotherapists. Return to sports training can typically resume at 9 months with return to competitive play at 12 months
