June 29, 2009 - PRLog -- Are you looking for a football knee brace?

Many people come to us, looking for the football knee brace.  Not only will they tell us that they are looking for a football knee brace, but they tell us that they want the best one.

Well, this article takes into account that not all football positions are created equal (you know that...) As a result, you may need to think differently about your knees, depending on the position that you play.

Ask yourself these questions, for starters: Are you more of a running player, or are you a lineman that needs to protect his knees in a different way?  (Or will you end up being the water boy, because you did not take the health of your knees very seriously?)  -

Have you ever heard a running back call his legs, his "money makers"?  Let us just put it this way... you will not have any money if your money makers are not working.

Or, are you a lineman that is going into battle every possession? The opposing player will do whatever it takes to surpass you, and physical incidents do happen.  Yeah, you can play with a broken finger, but can you play almost the same way with a torn ACL? - We don’t think so.

Here are some important things to consider when you are looking for a football knee brace:

1.) Yes, a knee brace can be a great aid to you, given the physical nature of your sport, but there is not just one knee brace for all football players. People make this mistake a lot, thinking that they will buy an all inclusive football knee brace.

2.) What is the injury that you are trying to recover from?  Do you have an ACL tear already?  Have you already sustained an MCL or meniscus injury?  -  It is important to note how bad the injury is, and what your pain level is now.

Generally speaking, the larger the knee injury, the larger the knee brace. - Also, usually custom knee braces are not better than off the shelf knee braces.  We like to ask people whether all of their clothes are custom made. - If not, they probably fit you well don't they?

Look to determine if you have a mild, moderate or severe knee issue.

3.) If you do not have a knee injury now, think about which one you want to avoid.  - There are certain knee braces out there that will help you avoid future knee injuries.  Due to the contact level of football, it is a wise thing to consider.
