I was wondering about the experience people have had with different knee braces. I took my girlfiend for her first major trek (Mt. Moriah, what a great view). Her history is arthroscopic knee surgery twenty years ago for ligament problems. No significant problems since then. She got pretty stiff coming down, and the good news is the stiffness did not last 24 hours. The extra growth rings which are perceptible in my mid-section also make me wonder from time to time whether it might be wise to get a little extra support for my poor old joints.
So, what do people like to use for knee braces?
We'll probably hike again before she gets an orthopedic opinion, so hopefully our random selection of a brace, guided by the experts at VFFT, will be beneficial, not harmful. (Oh, yes, she is a lawyer, but I would not worry about liability!)
Thanks!
