Knee Brace Meniscus Tear Support For Arthritis Acl, Mcl Pain Patented 4-way Adjustable Wraparound Strap Dual Side Stabilizer For Patella Stability Size [medium]

I have dislocated my kneecap hundreds of times since the original injury and severe dislocation 21 years ago. I realize this sounds insane and like no one would just keep popping their patella back into place every time it goes out for 21 years, never seeking further medical attention for the issue, especially as it continued to happen with increasing frequency. It's now at the point where it pops out at least once every month or two. Well, I have never claimed to be sane, and in my defense, the doctor I saw for the original injury said that I dislocated it so hard that it left permanent grooves in the cartilage underneath, and because of that, they would act as tracks and it would just keep dislocating, but there was nothing to be done for it. If you are wondering why I didn't seek a second opinion, it's because he was the second opinion...Anyway, on to the brace... My knee has finally gotten so bad that I can't let it go any longer and am going to see an orthopedist again. I'm pretty sure the soft tissue is so damaged that it's virtually useless. I have tried almost every style of brace on the market (except the really expensive ones), and none of them have offered enough support in the right places and been comfortable to wear for any period of time... But then I found THIS brace!! I hadn't even realized how much pain my knee was constantly in until I put this brace on!1) The inner silky sleeve which protects your leg from rubbing on the outer fabric, and is also breathable and moisture wicking is a complete game changer! One would think such a small detail would be insignificant, but in terms of comfort and wearability it makes all the difference in the world!2) The outer fabric is thinner and more light weight than most neoprene braces, making it more slim and comfortable, while still providing good compression and support. Also, the entire outside can be used to stick the velcro to, thus allowing you to position the straps exactly where you need them to be for optimal support.3) The 2 extra patella support bands are AMAZING!!! They work far better than I ever could have imagined at keeping everything in alignment, and applying just enough pressure to give stability and relieve pain, without being too tight or uncomfortable, as they are fully adjustable.4) The side supports are great! They definitely offer necessary added stability. The brace does limit your range of motion some, but that's really the whole point of a brace, since too great of movements will only lead to further injury and damage of an already weak or hurt area.Hands down, this the the absolute best brace ever!!! The price isn't much higher than your generic designs, and it is well worth it! (Also, I visited the retailers store and received a 25% off coupon to use on Amazon for any of their products, so that was helpful). But even at full price it's worth it. No other brace is designed quite as well, or offers the special features this one does. Plus, it is from a small business in the UK, designed by a guy determined to make a brace which would assist him with his own knee problems. The thought and care that went into making it is really evident, from construction to fit and function. It also comes with a 12 month warranty, and they send a paper with their contact info encouraging anyone who has an issue for any reason to contact them for resolution. They seem to be a good company who truly cares about their products and helping people. I very highly recommend that anyone with knee issues get this brace.The only suggestion I would make is for them to also make this in a plus sized version. Last year a medication I was put on caused A LOT of very rapid weight gain. Happily, stopping the med has reversed the process. But, had I tried to get this brace last year, it would not have fit my leg. Heavier people tend to have more joint problems, but there is a serious lack of good, affordable plus sized options of braces. I strongly encourage this company to fill that need. I am going to write to them regarding this issue. If you get this brace, or if you are a plus sized person whom this brace will not fit, I suggest that you also write to the company regarding this issue. I'm sure if enough people do it they will see there is a need and will work to fill it.Thank you for reading my long winded review. I hope you found it to be helpful.Once more for good measure... BUY THIS BRACE!!! (you won't regret it).Namaste.

Buy it and try it! I injured the soft tissue around my knee while working out last week and by yesterday I could not walk without a cane. I still needed a cane this morning, but I had ordered the brace overnight delivery from Amazon and it was here first thing in the morning. I put it on per the instructions in the video and suddenly I could walk without a cane and without any pain. As simple as that. I have experience with many different types of knee price through years of Karate and weight training and I find this to be the best and most effective brace that I have used to to date. It is very well packaged and I was surprised at how very lightweight it was when I picked up the package so it is not heavy and it is not bulky and I find that to be a great advantage compared to other braces, I’m writing this review right away because I know this brace is working and I’m very happy with it.

This is my first meniscus injury and there's a lot of braces to pick from. But I have to say that this one is a really good choice. It definitely makes it comfortable and bearable while you're in the healing process. Thanks guys.

I have an ongoing knee and hip issue. This brace is definitely worth a try.First of all, it’s very easy to put on and adjust and it just happens to fit my leg perfectly. I was pleasantly surprised at how almost immediately it relieved the pain in my knee. I walk a lot and my knee and hip hurt in unison because they’re both on the right. This knee brace improved my pain while walking by 90% and it actually helped my hip as well. I have to say I was pleasantly surprised. I can only speak for myself, but I highly recommend this knee brace. If you’re having chronic pain like I do, I would say it’s definitely worth a try. I give it five stars.

This was, how shall I put it, helpful. The only problem was the size I ordered according to the measuring instructions. I fit the parameters for a medium perfectly but I should have gone with a large. When wearing the medium it felt too tight, uncomfortable and like circulation was restricted. I did adjust the velcro straps but it never felt "right". I was always messing with the straps to adjust for comfort. I suggest going up a size from what their sizing instructions say. Other than that this was helpful in stabilizing my knee, for the short periods of time I could wear it, so I could walk around somewhat normally instead of with a pronounced limp.

I have bought numerous braces before for my ankle and I have never found one that comfortably fits. I bought this Knee brace because it was same day delivery and I was in pain after I twisted my knee awkwardly while playing with my toddler. I have to say this is the most comfortable brace I have ever bought. Easy to put on, cool doesn’t make you sweat and doesn’t feel like you are wearing one. Definitely helped stabilize my knee and I woke up the next morning feeling better. For my first time buying this brand I have to say this is the best and I highly recommend its purchase.

My right knee needed some extra support when playing tennis, so I got this brace. It never felt quite right until I've read someone else's review about flipping it upside down (log at the bottom) if using on the right knee, and it felt like a glove! My knee feels as secure is it can and this brace allows for additional peace of mind. It appears to be made of quality materials. Only one minor con/modification that needs to be addressed below.I play fairly competitive tennis and after about an hour, the straps start to pop from all the sweat buildup. The small(er) stock velcros can't quite keep up. To address that I've sewed in additional heavy duty velcro pieces (you can buy a roll) over the existing ones. Cheap fix that should allow the straps to stay on.

I am a physician and sustained a medial meniscal tear. This is the most cost effective and beneficial knee brace that I have ever purchased. Kudos to the developer. I will recommend this to all of my patients with acute and chronic knee pain.
