Strong 700 Right/Left Men's/Women's Knee Ligament Support - Black

Wearing a knee support may be recommended if you have suffered ligament damage or you are unsure how your knees will hold up when you get back into sport (basketball, football, handball, tennis, running, trail running, gymnastics, judo, skiing) after a sprain. It is easy to put on and has airy fabric and a shape designed to suit your knee and keep you comfy.

A sprained knee is when you stretch or tear one or more ligaments in your knee: the medial collateral ligament (MCL), fibular collateral ligament (LCL), the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and the posterior cruciate ligament (PCL). Sprains are not a serious problem when the ligaments are just stretched. They become fairly serious when the lateral ligaments alone are torn. Serious sprains are those when one of the cruciate and/or lateral ligaments is torn completely.

Measure around your leg, 8 cm above your kneecap. Then match the measurement taken with the following size chart:Size 1: 36 - 39 cmSize 2: 39 - 43 cmSize 3: 43 - 47cm

The knee is an important joint that is used heavily for sports activities. It absorbs impacts and stabilises you as well as withstanding huge stresses, particularly when running, jumping, landing and changing direction.Falling over when skiing is also particularly risky for your knees.
