Knee Braces
Knee braces are devices worn by people who have pain or discomfort in one or both knees. The brace helps to stabilize (secure and support) the knee and keep it from being hurt further.
Several types of knee braces are available:
- Compression neoprene knee braces, or knee sleeves, that support the knee and help prevent swelling and pain
- Knee immobilizers that keep the knee from moving
- Knee braces that stabilize the kneecap and reduce pain
- Knee braces that stabilize the knee after sports injury
- Unloader knee braces that shift body weight away from the injured part of the knee to a stronger area
