Knee Braces detail

 

 

 

The knee support on the left leg used is here.

These were virtually identical when purchased.  The right knee brace clearly is not as efficient.

This photo was taken while sitting and knees bent.  The faulty knee brace is even more clearly faulty.

While I was wearing both braces, a private consultant surgeon pointed to the faulty brace and asked why it had been cut.  "Hardly worth wearing." was included in his reply.

A rogue private physiotherapist advised enlargement of the hole.  

However, not all of them are incompetent.  On 28 February, an excellent NHS physio advised not to keep such devices on for too long as muscles weaken.  That advice applies, of course, to the shoulder brace here.
