How to use "Excruciate" in context?
One meaning of the word "excruciating" is "delivering intense or painful justice." Cruciate ligaments are fibers in the knee that attach the lateral tibia (shin bone) to the femur (thigh bone). When the ligaments are ruptured, the knee may become unstable. This destabilization can lead to excruciating pain, which can last for several days.
