Alpha Medical 12" Long Three Panel Knee & Leg Immobilizer/Kn

Excelente producto,muy buena calidad.

I’m not sure if I have a fracture yet but it helps the pain I’ve had under my knee for about a week and a half, so I’m just wearing it for comfort for now. I’ve had other (longer) immobilizers, one that went from the top of my leg to my ankle and it was difficult to apply by myself and kept slipping down no matter how tight I adjusted it. It was also difficult to adjust the panels to fit my legs, which were much thicker almost two years ago than they are now. But this immobilizer can also be adjusted, not sure if some people aren’t aware of how these 3 panel immobilizers work, but they usually come on the smallest size and you have to separate the panels and put them back together so that they can fit a larger leg. They usually come with instructions, but I wasn’t given the instructions from the hospital when I got my first immobilizer, so it was a while before I figured it out. This one does not slide down my leg (I’m wearing it without any clothes underneath). And it immobilizes my knee and prevents the hyperextension which is something I do naturally and causes pain since I sustained some kind of injury. I’m seeing an orthopedic surgeon this week so I will hopefully have X-rays taken at the very least and get an exam that will give me an idea of what my latest problem is.

I used this after I fractured my leg (minor fracture) and it worked well for support and immobilization. The one I took home from the hospital was too large (5 straps). I was able to become mobile quicker by using this instead of crutches. The only issue I had was: the Velcro and straps were less reliable with time.

I have a partially torn ACL, quad tendonitis, and arthritis in one of my knees and this is a huge help! It’s braced with a hinged brace during the day but still hurts so I went with this one to wear at night. Best decision ever. Not to long I’m 5’7” 150lbs it’s adjustable. I don’t understand reviews that say it doesn’t fit you can take the whole piece off with the loops and move it so my guess is some ppl don’t realize this. It does slide down with movement but not a prob for me as I’m using at night to sleep. If I were to use during the day I’d probably put something under it to prevent slippage. That flexible band aid would probably work great. My knee feels so much better when I wear this at night reducing the number of days I have to wear my hinged one during the day. Not ready for surgery so I’ll keep on bracing until it no longer works. Easy to use, completely adjustable, and fairly comfortable for a brace lol. Stop looking at the others on here this is the best bang for your buck!

I've tried several different brands, This one seems to work. It adjusts for size. Lots of Velcro. I was able to apply it to my knee by myself! Which is very important if you are handicapped and alone. I feel as this wears out I will be able to repair it( due to failing Velcro ). An American company that is trying to provide good products.
