For torn meniscus
The meniscus of the knee joint represents a crescent-shaped cartilage of the knee joint. A tear can occur in different ways and should be diagnosed and treated by a doctor. In the course of healing of the meniscus tear, the knee bandage is often used when physical activity increases.
The knee brace can also help to restore the stability of the joint during rehabilitation after an operation on the knee joint in the context of a torn meniscus. It should be noted that a knee brace is not sufficient as a therapeutic measure, but is only an aid in conservative therapy or a rehabilitation measure after surgery. Whenever the stability of the knee joint is limited, a knee brace can help to restore the stability of the joint and thus possibly make sports training possible again.
When jogging, the joint is subjected to very high stress, which is why a physician should always be consulted if the knee joint is already diseased, to confirm that it is possible to resume or continue training. Since jogging in particular requires great stability of the knee joint, a knee brace can help to make the sport possible despite the existing disease. It should be noted that if pain occurs despite the knee brace, the training should be stopped and a doctor should be consulted for clarification if necessary.
Therapy
Every knee joint disease is treated in a different way, depending on the severity of the disease and individual factors of the person affected. The resumption of sports activities is usually at the end of the healing process.In order to facilitate this resumption and to minimize the strain on the diseased knee joint, wearing a knee brace can be useful.
Diagnosis
If symptoms occur during knee joint loading, it is always recommended to consult a physician to clarify the symptoms heard individually. Wearing a knee support alone can help to control the symptoms, but should not be done without a medical examination of the symptoms. If the knee support is used for self-therapy of the symptoms, serious complications can occur, especially with active persons, which is why clarification and, if necessary, therapy are always recommended.
