Shop Post-Surgery Knee BracesWear time varies by procedure and surgeon preference. Some patients need constant bracing in the first few weeks, removing it only for showering or gentle exercises. Others gradually reduce brace usage as stability and range of motion improve. Always follow your surgeon’s timeline for safe healing.
It depends on your comfort, the leg operated on, and overall knee strength. If your brace impedes braking or accelerating, it’s best to wait until your doctor or physical therapist confirms it’s safe. Many people regain driving ability once they can bend and straighten the knee confidently without pain.
Look for a post-op design with adjustable hinges or ROM settings that let you safely increase knee flexion. A model like the Brace Direct ROM Telescoping Post-Op Knee Brace helps protect incisions and maintain proper alignment, reducing pain and swelling as you progress through rehab.
Brace Direct ROM Telescoping Post-Op Knee Brace
Many doctors recommend wearing a brace overnight for the first few weeks, especially if there’s a risk of bending or twisting during sleep. However, this advice can differ by surgery type. Once the joint stabilizes, some patients transition to nighttime off-brace periods for comfort.
Your return-to-activity timeline depends on factors like the specific procedure, your knee’s condition, and the intensity of your chosen sport. Some people resume low-impact activities within a few months, whereas high-impact sports often require six months or more. Following a structured physical therapy plan and wearing your post-op brace consistently will lower the risk of setbacks.
