Sprains and tears of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) are also common among athletes who participate in high-demand sports including football, gymnastics, soccer, downhill skiing, and basketball. As the pandemic's movement restrictions were removed, incidences resulting from the potential consequence of detraining come out to be a major contributor to ACL injury.
