Frequently Asked Questions

What brace is used for a broken kneecap?

Usually a knee immobilizer or a hinged brace locked in extension, which keeps the knee straight. Your doctor decides when it can start to bend.

Suggested: Brace Direct Tri Panel Knee Immobilizer

Do I need an immobilizer or a hinged brace for a knee fracture?

An immobilizer is simple and holds the leg straight. A hinged ROM brace can lock straight too, then unlock later, so you may only need one brace.

How do I fit a knee brace over a cast or swelling?

Ask your doctor whether a brace can go over a cast. Wraparound immobilizers and ROM braces adjust for swelling; check the size chart on each product page.
