Knee laxity: You may have ligamentous tear or laxity. A torn anterior cruciate ligament can also be a cause. An evaluation by an orthopedist can confirm what is going on. Physical therapy to strengthen all the muscles that support the knee can help, or the doctor may also recommend a laparoscopic operation to repair. if the doctor is considering an operation, you'll also need an MRI of the knee to confirm.
