How to wear a patellar tendon strap

Let’s start with a basic anatomical fact: Running, jumping and even walking subject your two knees to an extreme amount of force given an awkward alignment of all the moving parts. From a purely engineering perspective, it is not ideal.This knee brace is made to fit into the curves of your knee to provide the utmost support that it needs and to give you relief from your patella. Optimal loading. Get active sooner rather than later. Start to put weight on your knee and build up your range of movement. Do this gradually – be guided by what feels right for you. An adjustable support is a good idea if you want to be able to customize your level of compression to target aches and pains.

Also known as hyperextension, this condition is also one of the main reasons behind a torn meniscus.

For anyone that has suffered previous ligamentous damage (ACL, MCL, PCL, LCL) then you should consider getting the one with the hinge for more rotational stability.When tightened, the brace will provide just the right amount of compression to help minimize the pain that comes with tendonitis. Elevation. Elevate your knee above the level of your heart to reduce swelling. Sit or lie on a chair and use a cushion to raise your leg.
