LCL Tear Tamarac

Feeling pain or instability on the outer side of your knee after a sudden twist, impact, or awkward movement? You could be experiencing an LCL (lateral collateral ligament) tear—an injury that affects one of the primary stabilizing ligaments of the knee. At Theracave in Tamarac, we provide personalized physical therapy for LCL tears, focused on reducing pain, restoring strength, and helping you regain knee stability and confidence in your movement.

The LCL helps keep the knee steady during side-to-side motion and protects it from inward stress. When injured, it can lead to swelling, weakness, and difficulty performing everyday tasks or athletic activities. At Theracave, we start with a comprehensive evaluation to understand the severity of your injury and then design a customized rehab plan. With a combination of manual therapy, targeted strengthening, and balance training, we guide you through a safe and effective recovery process that supports long-term knee health and mobility.

Causes:

Sudden twisting or awkward landing

Hyperextension injuries

Quick changes in direction or cutting motions

Falls or accidents involving knee trauma

Symptoms

Pain or tenderness on the outer side of the knee

Swelling around the outside of the knee joint

Stiffness or limited range of motion

Bruising along the outer knee

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Without a doubt this is the best Physical Therapy experience I have ever had (and I have had several). I have worked with Ayoub Zianai (AZ) and Hesham Abdel-Salam and they are both consummate professionals. A very thorough evaluation was done to start and a treatment plan reviewed. So much more extensive than other PT facilities which just take the referring Dr's prescription and assign exercises. Each week we discuss what is happening and modifications are made if necessary. Both practitioners are easy to speak with and very caring. I highly recommend TheraCave!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I can’t recommend Theracave enough! I came in with herniated discs in my neck that were causing arm pain and making it difficult to work out at all. Hesham took a truly one-on-one approach, helping me understand where the pain was coming from and working on strengthening the areas of my back that needed support. He told me he’d get me back in the gym, and after about 18 sessions, I’m slowly getting back to running and lifting weights with so much more confidence.

I also worked with Ayoub, who is lovely, attentive and patient. Both made me feel heard and supported throughout the process. The medical massages made a huge difference, with some of my pain going away and never returning, and the dry needling helped loosen things up.

What stands out most is their gentle, science-backed and detail-oriented approach. It’s clear they understand the body and take the time to address what’s actually causing your symptoms. If you’re working toward a goal and want truly personalized care, I highly recommend them!
