I have chronic knee pain. Will this work for a knee?

Have only used it on back but don't know why it wouldn't work on knees. My husband's machine and said it would do pretty much what their equipment would. Pleased with it.

I don't want to say it will .. But it is a stim machine, just like they use in the physical therapist office. For me .. It's a great buy.. And useful. Use the machine and ice in your own home.

It helped somewhat for the pain, but has done wonders for post op pain. Had both knees replaced and couldn't have made it without it. You need to put the pads so the current goes diagonal across knee.

I would think so although I have never used it for my knee, it helps a great deal with my shoulder, hip and back.

no TENS machine worked for me after my knee got to bone on bone. If it is cartilage damage, I did get some relief. Hope this helps!

Yes works great I use it for my knee pain to. Set it to 15 min and choose random option.

Can be depending on how in shape your knees are. I do some of the exercises in Treat Your Own Knee Arthritis and my knees have held up well.

Yes, as far as I can tell, it would work on knees. I needed it for elbow, but do not see why it would not work for sore muscles around knee area. It is analgesic so don't expect a cure for arthritis, but some relief should be expected.

It works on my husbands knee, and the problem is the knee is slipping out to the side of his knee..It does keep it stable

It was not big enough for my knee and was useless for my knee. I weigh 200. Might work for smaller size weight.

I have no idea about that. I doubt it. Try Zyfalmend, which is sold thru Amazon at a very good price--cheaper than you can get at a Whole Foods, etc. store. Some folks have really good luck with Zyflamend and it was recommended to me through a well known herbalist. Look at the reviews for Zyflamend on Amazon--that is a good start. Good luck with that knee!

Most likely at least some of it. The proper exercises can help a lot too - try the book Treat Your Own Knee Arthritis.

You might try online. Google it. I think I did. You can measure your knee and it will tell you which one you need. I love this brace.

i didn't try on the knees. best to buy tens machine and i bought one from www.otcwholesaler.com for my mom. i showed it to the physio and she said it's a good machine. U will need to set the pulse rate and width and the mode. hope this help. My mom told me it relieved her knee pain.

You would have to check with your healthcare provider to answer this question. The Northern California Kaiser foundation provides a referral to a medical rental company who has this and other brands of knee walkers. In my case the cost of the rental was far greater than the cost to purchase the device. When I no longer have a need for it, I will donate it and take the write off!

I don't see why it wouldn't work on a knee. It's flexible enough to bend around a knee but you might have to hold it in that position with your hand. I don't know if the velcro fastener would make it tight enough to stay in place.

Yes, the velcro makes it very adjustable. Therefore it should fit while your knee is swollen and as the swelling goes down.

i use it for low back problems. not sure about knee issues. u should ask your doctor if your knees should be elevated.

Johnny Bench says it will! It worked wonders on my wife's arthritis, she is a different person now with greater use of her hands and no more daily pain. It takes at least two weeks of 3 times a day applications before noticeable relief occurs. Then use when needed. In our case it works great. With all your pain I would say for $12 it would really be worth a try!

No. This is to put pressure on the patella tendon. This is not used for any protection of the knee.

I didn't realize there were five different "kneedits". However, when making my decision, i tried a few on at a sporting goods store, watched and read a bunch of online content, and understood the mechanics of my personal knee issue. None of them are going to work like magic, but i will say this: after wearing mine during leg workouts, stopping because i didnt feel they were as effective as described, experiencing the pain come back, wearing them again and realizing that they do work (just not 100%), i decided they are a decent product.

I am not too sure the copper will work. I wrapped it around my left knee in hopes that I would get "copper relief" for the pain in my knee but it does tear easily for me and isn't very thick. I just don't know whether it will work for you or not. You can always try it but I hate to see you waste money on something that might not work. I am just not too sure.
