Knee Braces - - Posted by CarolineR (CarolineR), 8 July 2004

Was wondering if anyone has used a knee brace post MACI to enable them to get back to sports which might involve a little twisting of the knee etc.  Have seen the range at Technology In Motion, Wimbledon which seems impressive but does anyone know what would be suitable for MACI knees
Cheers

I am sure that by now someone has advised you but I thought just in case I would let you know that I use an unloader brace for pitching.  The doc said that it would protect my knee from all of the twisting.
