Hi,
What exercises would you recommend for anteromedial and posterolateral knee instability? There is no specific trauma involved and joint laxity is congenital.
Many thanks for your help!:)

The knee is really just a hinge. It moves excessively (or not) based on your foot/ankle movement and your hip movements. This to really work on controlling what the knee joint does you need to work on lumbopelvic and hip/gluteal stability. And of course on ankle stability. Getting those as balanced as possible with give you more value to which you can then add various balancing exercises for the quads and hamstrings. Impossible to put it all into words on a forum but maybe going forward we'll have more video exercise ideas.
HI,
For knee instability, we should find the courses of this, congenital or acquired. If it is congenital, we should know what the problem is: such as joint disfiguration, muscle unbalance and so on. If it is acquired, we should find what is the courses such as injury and it is acute or chronic.The patient should be given some exercises, quards strengthening ex, after RICE technique, Rest, Ice, Compression and Elevation, Be careful in tendon injuries, muscle injuries, not to forget to do RICE.
Yours sincerely, THIRI(Physiotherapist)

Instability of the knee is usually due to an acute or chronic injury of the anteriorcruciate ligament, posterior cruciate ligament, medial collateral ligament, and/or posterolateral complex of the knee. True instability results in the knee essentially subluxing or opening abnormally with specific activities. This can include problems with twisting, pivoting, or turning with an anterior cruciate ligament tear.
