LEO Y Marisol.😀😀
Super helpful man, the chart at the end is exactly what I was looking for
So glad I found your channel. Thorough, informational, simply explained - AND a handsome guy! Thank you
Hey this was so incredibly helpful. Surprised to see only 300 subscribers for your channel. You’re providing an amazing service sharing content like this. I’m subscribing and thank you for being so clear in your videos.
And how I found your video:
I was browsing Amazon for knee braces and many of them have a lot of contrasting reviews (fake and then upset people). That prompted me to visit UA-cam for confirmation. Found you via search (and thank god I did)
Thank you so much for your kind words ! I appreciate it a lot!
I have been wanting to add another video on ankle braces, but the life is getting in the way.
This is the info I was looking for. The chart is great! I now feel like I'm making at least somewhat of an informed decision on which brace to try. Thank You!
Excellent video! I need a brace/sleeve for both of my mild arthritis knees when I walk faster than a 20-minute mile or longer than 1-mile. Thank you for making this! It 100% informs what to buy (or whether to buy) for specific medical diagnosed or self-diagnosed knee conditions.
Glad I could help!
This was really helpful! Thanks for this!
Excellent. Thank you for the detailed anslysis , information & advice.
Great video. Very confusing trying to find a brace for PFPS but you've helped narrow it down :)
Thank you for this video, very helpful.
💯Your the best AND the only vid to address the IT band syndrome, which is a part of my tri problem. 🙏
Really good video! Very informative and it will definitely make my choice a lot easier :)
Very good and helpful video! Thank you so much.
An excellent guide. Many thanks!
This video cleared up a lot of decision making for me, thanks
Thank you for such cut to the point information. Great illustrations as well, I always like the idea of sleeves and now that I run more my knees ache. So I’m gonna skip the fashion show and just the knee compression adjustable support for when I want more support on my runs! Thanks a lot! 🎉
Thank you for the information and thanks for the well-panned chart.
Wow! That chart was extremely helpful. Thank you for offering this info in such an organized way for so many variations of knee pain. Well done!
This is very helpful, regards from Manila!
Thank you! I tore my ACL when I was 14 and had surgery. Now I’m 32 and trying to workout and run again but now I’m starting to get some pain.
Amazing depth in info !
I love charts like this too! Thank you!
Thanks for this video, that was really helpful!

I gave up on fixing my knees. Then found this miracle video❤
Amazing thank you doctor ❤️
Great video, thanks!
Wonderful video. Dealing with a lot of knee pain since my ACL and meniscus tear. Always had trouble finding the right way to support my knee.
If surgery was not done, it would probably be a good idea to follow up those injuries with rehabilitation
@@ForTeamTang I got a knee reconstruction, but I wasn't able to finish physical therapy. It's all right for the most part. Just can't asian squat anymore haha.
This is a really good video, thank you!
I hurt my knee almost two years ago but lately it’s been pretty painful and I’ve had a limp. I’m unsure what happened but I was curious if my wrap around knee brace was good for when I hurt it, and also whenever my knee starts to bug me.
Thanks for the video, it was very educational.
It would probably best to follow up with your local PT to figure out what is going on since it has been going for a couple of years.
This was so helpful. I can make a much better decision to help my knee problem.
Thank you for your information
Informative thank you 🙂🙏
Hey, great video! Now, which should i use if i have joint hypermobility syndrome?
Thank u this was perfect
Hello! I was wondering what brace you would recommend for an osteochondral defect, for basketball specifically.
Thank u very helpful 🤩
Hi Dr. Tang, i am 15 years old and i have osgood schlatter on my left knee. Which brace should i wear during basketball practice/games?
SUPER ZUPER DUPER BIG THANKS 🤩
Wow what best way to put it out than charting
Thanks for this fantastic video Doc!
I in particular have both my ACL's and meniscus's reconstructed (almost 12-15 years back). I have started gym-ing and conveyed this to my instructor, who has asked me to buy a Brace for squats and other knee intensive exercises. Which one should I get for my use-case?
In cases like this, stability would be most preffered. Something like heavy duty brace would be probably most effective
Love you for this! The info that i desperately needed as I've had enough of my knee pain. In short; i have to bend down and use my hand to pop knee fluid back in as it feels swollen and hurtS IDK!! Usually whilst walking/alittle run. Right knee Inparticualr. Im trying a Compression socks for ankle and calf first to see how it helps.
Best of luck to you !
@@ForTeamTang t thank you any guess on what my issue may be im 23 but feel like i have an arthritis in so many areass?
@@Poetry4Peace its very hard to make a correct analysis or recommendation online without a proper evaluation. I would recommend you go see your local physical therapist to properly evaluate it for you.
that being said, the likelihood of a 23 year old with arthritis is very unlikely. but anything is possible
@@ForTeamTang oh right thanks anyways, can you make a video for ankle support socks sleeves etc, options too I'd like to see ur analysis on it too, please aha 🙏🏼
Love this! I had acl reconstruction 7 years ago. Now I’m having some comes and goes knee pain while playing tennis. Which one should I choose?
Hey, I have a section maybe helpful for you :
15:26 Knee Ligament Strain/Tear
I have osteo-arthritis and found the ACE hinged brace to be very effective for working 8 hours. Overkill? Probably, and some movement seems overly restrictive, but wanted the maximum support possible.
thanks bro! you really hellpfull!!
@Dillon Dangelo dude no that's a scam. hope you are not going to try that bullshit
Thank you so much!
what about ifu want to prevent knee injuries? are knee protections/braces also preventative?
...wrap around brace it is... thx. Cheers, Mate!
Hey. What kind of a brace should I use for returning to soccer. I had ACL reconstructed and now I’m fully fit for soccer .
Thank you. My husband bought tons of knee sleeves, medicated… even the hard brace and none of them works in an ideal way. He had surgery in the knee. He never knew how long can he had those props on, if he can use them when sleeping, if it’s better or not (doctor said he has to operate both knees and replace them with prothesis). He is 58, is it better now or wait to be older? Hello from 🇯🇵
I have my first half-marathon in less than a week, and had sharp pain on my right knee the other day to the point that I had to stop. Do you recommend running my race with a Hinge brace, so I don’t jeopardize it? Do you also recommend Kinesio tape? Thanks a bunch! 😅
Hi Dr. Tang - Thanks for making this highly informative video. I am in the latest sixties and have been playing competitive basketball but stop recently. Although I have never suffered severe knee injuries, I do have a condition known as the "loose knee cap" according to my osteopathic physician. Current days, I have to be careful about my knee when using the elliptical, stationary cycle, or exercises that require stress on knees like squatting or lifting weights. I wonder which type of knee braces would help me most. Thank you in advance for your advice.
Hello Dr....I have suprapatellar joint effusion. Plica & degeneration of medial/ lateral meniscus.. please advise!!
My doctor recommend stabilize hinged linen brace bec.of my arthritis what will u recommend for me
What can you say about the djoy web knee brace? I have a grade 1 chondropathy. Thnx
Thank you 👍
What is the best knee pad used after knee replacement
Hey Dr. What is good to prevent ligament injuries? Broke my patella bone, and am getting back into athletics but my knee is so weak, I want to avoid ligament injuries
I have severe bone on bone arthritis and wear a hinge brace while I am awake. I sleep in the compression sleeve. Braces help with the pain. The wrap around braces don't stay in place as good as the other types I use. I've tried them all.
As someone who has no cartilage left after a sports injury, what would you recommend after to be used for HIIT/Tabata/Boxing workouts and for weighted runs/sprints? I am looking for compression pads with a patella cutout for added support and stability. Would the hinged braces be recommended to work out in?
Hi man you’ve basically described me to the T. Any suggestions or advice.
Dude I'm pretty sure a brace is not designed to help your knee "with NO cartilage left" be able to do "weighted runs/sprints" and high impact activities. Unless you don't want to feel it while you are screwing it up even worse ... 🙃
Still confused, My Dr. Says i have a bakers cyst and Rheumatoid Arthritis, I do alot of gym training and cycling, from what I understand from the video/chart I shouldnt bother with getting anything?
I have osteoarthritis and have discovered that what feels best to me is my hinged knee brace, with the lower strap (that is a couple of inches below the kneecap) CRANKED DOWN LIKE WTF & WOE....which now, watching your video...makes me think that it's effectively pushing the joint apart. Which makes sense in retrospect.
I haven't seen a wraparound, and sleeves just won't work for me for Reasons.
i have like the wrap around one. l . iam going to use it for volleyball but not doctor has said i can/sould. do you think i can?? i just have knee pain when i land from jumping.
Advice for Osgood-schlatter specifically?
I need help, i dislocated my patella fighting, coach put ir right back 2 seconds after, the pain wasnt bad it was alright, doctor inmovilized my knee and gave me 3 weeks rest, however idk if i broke a tendon, i thought after 3 weeksi was gonna be alright but im reading a lot of things about surgery and that. My question is, will i fight again?😢, thanks for the video
Edit: what if i just train with a knee brace?
Im looking for a good brace for patella alta. Any ideas?
thank you sir
Thank you 👍🏿♥️
I need one of those
I have contact dermatitis to neoprene knee braces doctor what should I do?
I’m having trouble with putting on the small brace? Any tips?
i have recently just feeling a small but noticeable pain on my left knee that it stops me from playing volleyball when it starts to hurt after one or two intense games. I'm looking for a knee sleeves or brace but what i want hear from anyone in the comment section is how should i treat my knee pain, it's not diagnozed but i think according to google and the internet it seems like a patella tendonitis or runner's knee. Should i just focus on working out and building muscle on my quads and glutes and it will help my knee while i rest to heal it up? I can walk fine, it only hurts when i put too much stress on it while playing sports, which is volleyball in my case.
Which brace would you recommend for fat pad impingement?
Whats the best for patellar tracking disorder, tracking outward
Im a little overweight and when i play ball i can feel the stress on my knees, and i cant decide which one should i get.
Which knee brace can we prefer for bipartite patella ??
Lipodema/Lymphedema causes me to have abnormally large legs, especially the thighs. Every sleeve, wrap around, or brace I try on for my knee pain goes on the calf and the knee. But either won’t go up on the thigh at all, or rolls down as soon as I start to move. Are there any manufacturers who make either neoprene sleeves with a knee cut out, or wrap arounds for obese people? Most of us end up with severe knee pain. We need these products. Or is there anyone who makes custom ones to fit larger people? Or is there a way for me to buy two of one kind and have them sewn together?
I've had knee pain when I walk long distances for a few weeks now and I was planning on buying one of these strap knee braces but they are quite expensive so I ended up getting this sleeve bandage thing that you cut to your desired length and can you use 'for large ankles medium knees or small thighs' I don't think it's the best thing but hopefully it will give my niece a bit of stability
How did you find it?
What knee brace we need to use for patella dislocation i got patella dislocation one year back , after that iam feeling uncomfortable to play any games and scared so much to play
Can you suggest any brace to avoid future dislocation during games
Solid
How about knee crepitus? Which product can you recommend,?
What brace would u recommend for osgood schlatter
Hi Dr. Tang which brace is best for running long distances? 1/2 marathons or marathons. I don't have much pain but sometimes I feel pain below the patella but slightly on the inward area of legs/ knees. 7 or 8 o'clock on right knee, 4 or 5 o'clock on left. Possibly from a slight rotation. Just looking for added protection when running. Thank you. Excellent video! Graphs were great.
Typically I dont really like recommending knee braces for runners because it tends to be very hot and the brace ends up moving around. Knee braces to address that particular problem is the special variation of having a open-back knee brace.
If you are having pain in your knees , especially in different locations of your knee, it would be best to follow up with your local physical therapist for proper evaluation to have a more long term fix. In my own experience with patients, typically scenarios similar to what you describe relates more to running mechanics? This is a guess, not advice.
@@ForTeamTang Thank you. I have addressed it years back with my doctor. I have invested in high quality running shoes that help with keeping my foot straight to help prevent any future problems from occurring. Strength training on weaker muscles as well, for a proper gate. I was skeptical on getting a brace for running as I was concerned with it moving around. For shorter runs or exercising though I will look into that type of brace. Again thanks for the video, It was very informative. I liked that you used products that are found at local retailers as opposed to online items. Thanks again. Be blessed.
Hellow doc michael, i have a surgery from a patellar tendon rupture 3 years ago, and i want to engage in physical activities again like play basketball, what type of knee support do u recommend to me?? Your reply is very much appreciated doc, thank u in advance
I hope that if you had tendon rupture 3 years ago that you would have gone through some rehabilitation to get you back up to speed.
If i were in a similar situation, I would use a wrap around knee brace and eventually not use anything at all.
But if you have not been properly evaluated, it would be ideal to have yourself checked out than just asking me. I can only do so much through a description. Perhaps in the future, I may offer a online consultation , but as of right now i do not.
Can anyone recommend knee braces for a dancer. I have intense knee pain behind my knee cap and it also tends to gives out. I need to be able to move a lot and I would like to not have to constantly reajust it. I'm never going to stop dancing either way, so either I find something to help with the pain or I just deal with it.
Hi, so what kind of knee brace should I get if I just only need to do precautions since I was playing badminton frequently. Appreciate with your kind advise
All around knee brace is best for sports ventures. This is a very basic one, amzn.to/3xG7hcL
sportier versions like this could work as well
amzn.to/3wbrwxy
if you have potentially pain or still unsure, please follow up with your local physical therapist to follow up with your specific needs.
Hello, friend can you reply for bow leg knee braces.
I tore my patellar tendon and I need a brace to play basketball and to stop injury. For some reason I can't jump or run.
What brace do you recommend to prevent hyperextension? I'm not over active but normal daily walking and golfing.
There are not really a ton braces that prevent hyperextension. Only ones are hard braces or hinged brace (amzn.to/3gDaeDY), though that probably would be over kill for walking and golfing. You are likely to get a more specific answer to your medical concerns from your local medical professional.
Knee sleeve brace works great but keeps sliding down my leg. I got a hockey garter belt, cut a couple of small holes in sleeve and the brace stays in place for a whole day of skiing.
Hello Doc, I have a torn ACL and I haven't been in surgery before. What knee brace would you recommend?
