Knee pain can have many causes including sports injury from constant pressure during high impact sports. The adjustable design made it easy to find the right fit before heading out, with a strap-and-hook fastener system helping to ensure it wasn’t too tight.

With its unique web design, the Reaction absorbs impact shock to prevent strain on joints that have been weakened by arthritis. Another option may be using a simple knee support which has no metal parts, as they will not noticeably affect your knees range of motion.Information provided is for reference purposes only and does not constitute medical advice or opinion. Football players put an extra amount of pressure on their knees because of all the tackling, sharp turning, and lateral movement in this sport. And there are “unloader” supports, which are used for chronic conditions such as arthritis and help to shift your weight distribution. Jumping for a header, shifting to get round a defender or sliding in for a tackle can take a heavy toll on the knees, potentially leading to an injury that leaves you stuck on the bench.
