Review on 👾 Black McDavid 421 Knee Support Level 2 with Stays, Size Medium by Billy Stull

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Waiting for a miracle?

So basically I'm going to have knee surgery and I'm trying to avoid it in any way I can. Это второй коленный бандаж, который я пробовал, и у меня было чертовски много времени, чтобы выбрать его, так как вариантов оооооооооооооооооооооооооооооооооооооооооооооооооооооооооооооооооооооооооооо! I wore it once when I knew I would be on my feet all day. Problems: very, very hot and sweaty. Slips down so the hole in the kneecap wasn't there after a few hours. I kept pulling it up and trying to tighten the strap, THIS caused my ankle to swell alarmingly. In the beginning I had a problem with the size: due to the measuring guide on the McDavid website, I ordered a large size. It was too big, and even with the straps tightened as tight as they could, it was still too big. So I returned it for the sake of the environment. It seems to me that the environment is too small. Maybe that's why it worked on my leg? In any case, all experience tells me that it's difficult and maybe it's better to have it fitted by an orthopedist. Unfortunately my orthopedist said braces would NOT work as I am bone to bone and no cartilage left (sp?). THIS is why my knee hurts. Now I'm wondering about those really weird looking ones with a serious plastic splint between the knee and calf and then above the knee? Supposedly such braces actually preserve the space between the bones? I can't tell from the reviews if it really works. I'm disappointed.

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Requires socket
