  • I need a support brace for a sprained knee. I have large thighs and would like to know if you have a product that would fit my thigh (38") and calf (22").
    
    Thanks
  • Unfortunately we do not have anything that accommodates a 38” thigh circ.

  • does this brace work for a patellar dislocation and menisus tear after surgery?
  • This brace will provide some support for the patella, but I would suggest looking at a stronger brace like the tru-pull lite or the tru-pull advanced system. They will provide more patella support for chronic patella dislocations.

  • Looking for a brace to support knee after surgery to repair upper quad tear from patellar
  • The patellar Stabilizer w/ butteress is mostly for patella tracking issues, not really quad tendon repair. Normally that is going to require a brace that can limit range of motion, like a post-op brace. Our TROM is a good option on www.donjoy.com or you could look at a hinged ligament knee brace that can limit range of motion too, like the Legend.

  • Hi, I have hyper-mobility and, owing to a lack of exercise, weak muscles around my knees. For skiing I use a rigid hinged brace that gives strong lateral support. I'm looking for something much lighter to provide general stability and confidence in the gym. Is this the right one? Thanks.
  • Hi Tim,
    
    Yes, the ProCare Patella Stabilizer w/ Buttress will provide stability and be useful at the gym. If your patella hyper-mobility in one direction (medial or lateral), I would suggest the DonJoy Lateral J knee brace. It will provide additional support if needed.
    
    If you have additional questions, please call 1-800-553-6019.
    
    Have a nice day.

  • what is the difference between the two buttresses?
  • •Choice of adjustable felt horseshoe-buttress or sewn-in tubular buttress
    
• From Kathleen Elder at 4/21/12 8:26 AM
  • How does the felt horseshoe-buttress adjust?
  • Hi Kateleen,
    
    The adjustable buttress can be trimmed to create an individualized fit depending where extra support is needed.
    
    Have a nice day.
