Whether you’re recovering from surgery or have a weak or injured knee, the Dr. Franklyn's Hinged Knee Brace will brace the knee to help prevent unwanted movement that could result in additional harm to the area. To provide optimal comfort, the knee support is crafted with durable neoprene fabric. This material is lightweight and breathable to allow for air circulation, delivering compression and therapeutic heat to provide relief from knee pain caused by arthritis, strains, sprains and fatigue. It’s also ideal for use to aid in recovery after knee surgery or as an athletic compression wrap to prevent injuries when engaged in physical activities. The brace is supported by aluminum hinges, located on each side of the brace to reduce movement while improving medial and lateral stability. As a result, it replicates the natural movement of the knee to help reduce injury and assist with recovery. For added convenience, these hinges can be removed if less support is needed. Supporting pre-existing injury, preventing injury and reducing the risk of re-injuring, the open patella design isolates and supports the patella to relieve pressure and reduce stress on the knee joint during exercise or heavy use. This design provides support for arthritis, meniscus injuries or a swollen or teared ACL, tendon or ligament. Ideal for active individuals with weak, injured or arthritic knees, the Dr. Franklyn's Hinged Knee Brace can be used on the left or right leg. Extra strength fasteners allow you to adjust to your specifications for a secure, customized fit, while the breathable material allows for all-day comfort no matter what you're doing.
