It is advisable to consult a healthcare professional for guidance on usage. The general steps for application are: 1. Unfasten all the hook and loop straps. 2. Position the brace under the leg, ensuring the wider end is towards the thigh and the narrow end is towards the foot. 3. Center the brace so that the opening aligns with your kneecap. 4. Wrap the brace around the leg and fasten the straps, starting with the ones closest to the knee (above and below) to secure it in place. 5. Continue fastening the remaining straps from the bottom up until the fit is snug but not restrictive.
Always consult with a healthcare professional before using a knee immobilizer, especially after surgery or for existing medical conditions. Ensure the brace is not too tight, as this could restrict blood flow. Regularly check the skin for any signs of redness or irritation, which might indicate the brace is on too tightly. Do not bend the knee when the brace is off unless advised by your doctor. Avoid using lotions or creams on the skin under the brace to prevent skin issues.
The product is made in India. It can be worn on either the left or right leg. For cleaning, use mild soap and warm water.
