Questions and Answers
Common questions about the Open-Patella Neoprene Knee Stabilizer. For anything specific to your own condition, speak to a qualified healthcare professional.
How do I choose the right size?
Choose the size by knee circumference. Center the open patella over the kneecap and align the reinforced side supports with the joint. Available sizes: S, M, L, XL, 2XL. Measure around the knee at the centre of the kneecap while the leg is relaxed. Keep the tape level and do not compress the skin. Check the size table on this page against your own measurement before ordering.
How do I put it on and adjust it?
Put it in position first, then close it, using the adjustable upper and lower hook-and-loop straps, working from the middle outwards so the pressure stays even. The product is partially adjustable. It should feel snug and evenly supported, never painful, and should not leave deep marks on the skin. Loosen or reposition it if it does.
Will it restrict my movement?
Supports controlled knee flexion and extension while improving side-to-side stability. It is designed for firm support. It should feel secure without pinching, sliding, or cutting off circulation.
How is this different from the other knee supports?
The Open-Patella Neoprene Knee Stabilizer is open at the kneecap and reinforced at the sides. The Dual-Spring Knee Brace (K10) carries flexible springs, and the Elastic Knitted Knee Support (K05) is lighter in structure.
Can I wear this during sport?
It can be worn during activity provided the fit is correct and the support does not slip or bunch behind the knee. If the knee gives way, locks, swells, or the pain increases during use, stop and seek professional advice before continuing.
How do I wash and care for it?
Fasten all closures before washing. Follow the care label supplied with the product. Unless the label states otherwise, hand wash gently in lukewarm water with mild detergent and air dry flat away from direct heat. Do not bleach, wring, tumble dry, or iron.
When should I stop using it and seek advice?
Do not overtighten or position straps so they create pressure lines. Neoprene may retain heat. Remove the brace for rubbing, increased pain, swelling, numbness, tingling, colour or temperature change, or skin irritation. Use after significant injury or surgery only as professionally directed.
