ACL Knee Injuries on Female Athletes

The equality between male and female opened a lot of doors for female athletes. This proved that in the sports industry, all is fair and square regardless of gender. So, if males can acquire a lot of injuries, so do females. But, according to surgeons, female athletes are more likely to endure serious ACL injuries than male athletes. Thus, further study is being conducted to know the reason behind this discovery.

According to Dr Tonino, these injuries are still avoidable by completing the conditioning process and learning the proper landing techniques. There is yet no concrete explanation as to why female athletes are more prone to these injuries. However, there is a theory that this is due to the way female athletes land. So, Dr Tonino gave recommendations to prevent injuries from happening. Discover more of this study here.
