What are the signs and symptoms of an ACL tear?

When your ACL tears, you might feel or hear a pop in your knee, or feel like your knee has “given out.” Other symptoms include:

  • Pain.
  • Swelling that starts immediately (but can start four to six hours after the injury) and lasts for two to four weeks.
  • Loss of range of motion in your knee.
  • Tenderness.
  • Discomfort when you walk.
