Skiing Knee Support
The most common skiing injuries occur in the lower legs, particularly the knee. It’s a fun sport, but most athletes are unaware that their knees work and handle too much pressure while skiing. Knee injuries occur in skiing when you fall awkwardly, when your knee hits from hard rock, or when your knee is twisted badly.
Hinged Knee Brace Support for Swollen ACL, Tendon, Ligament and Meniscus Injuries with Side Stabilizers and Patella Gel Pad
Protect your knees and avoid discomfort!
360 Relief Hinged Knee Support Brace supports and stabilizes a damaged knee and eases pain and inflammation while recovering.
Although minor knee injuries may heal independently with rest, if the symptoms and pain persist for more than a week, then call a doctor. Your doctor or GP asks about how the injury occurred and what symptoms you are facing. Your doctor will help you treat knee injury with medication, physiotherapy, and knee support.
Physical therapy can usually help to limit issues and speed up the healing process. Your doctor may recommend you wear knee support when you start healing. If your medical team approves, you could start a new activity that won’t damage your knee while you recover completely.
However, a knee brace or support may help you live a better version of life and make your recovery fast. It can help reduce pain, joint inflammation, and suffering by providing extra support and protection to prevent a recurrence of injury. It is mostly made with a neoprene material which can help provide compression and warmth to boost blood flow.
However, it’s important to choose a good knee brace that’s comfortable and easy to wear. 360 Relief has a variety of knee braces and supports that can help deliver compression across your knee joints. They can also help provide support and protection while allowing your knees to heal quickly.
Skiing puts pressure on your knees and may put you in a condition known as runners’ knee, resulting in pain around the front aspect of your knees. You may feel pain while walking, going downstairs, kneeling, or sitting.
A skier may face the following injuries during the performance:
- Knee Sprain
- Cartilage or Meniscus Tear
- Runners’ Knee
Wearing a knee brace during skiing can reduce the chances of injuries. You can provide your knees with 30% more resistance from stresses placed on the knee ligaments with a knee brace. Wearing a knee brace also helps avoid the recurrence of previous knee injuries.
Your knee brace must be comfortable and breathable enough to allow your knee to move freely while skiing. Knee braces are neither bulky nor heavy. Light-weight and streamlined braces help skiers perform well.
Wearing a knee brace following an injury can help prevent further damages. Wearing a knee brace, especially a rehabilitative brace, also helps immobilize your knees to speed up the recovery process following surgery.
