Yuvraj had a severe injury in his right leg. The doctor told that he had a ligament tear. What does the doctor mean?
Ligaments
A ligament is a fibrous connective tissue present in animals. It connects bone to bone. If a ligament is torn, the movements of the muscles and bones of that region are affected.A torn ligament severely limits knee movement, resulting in the inability to pivot, turn, or twist the leg.Bone fracture means a complete or partial break in a bone.
