Majority of MCL injuries occur from a contact mechanism of injury.

Toe walking occurs when a child walks on the balls of their feet without letting their heels touch the ground. Many young children do this occasionally, but when it becomes a habit, it should be assessed to determine the cause. If left untreated, persistent toe walking can cause structural changes, which may eventually require medical intervention, including surgery. Physiotherapy can play a key role in preventing the need for such measures.
