A member asked:
What does mild laxity of the fibular collateral ligament mean
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Laxity: Laxity implies that that ligament is loose, but when the knee is bent this is a flexible ligament. An orthopedic surgeon can tell you how significant this finding is in your case by examining your knee in flexion and in extension and get an idea how stable your knee joint is.
