Is this a good brace for LCL injuries?

Yes ! I have water in my knee and the pain and joints are similar to LCL which Locks, Catches and Gives Away I use this brace when I am out walking and in the house. You can also run with it on as well.

I'm not sure but I do know that it doesn't stay inplace. You have to keep pulling it up and repositioning.

I haven't had any such problem with this brace. It's comfortable enough for me. But I don't wear it at night I use it only to keep my trigger thumb in check when I'm doing manual work.

I have used it for basketball for six months and it is very comfortable. It's kept me in the game even with an MCL ligament problem.

My brace is very tight and use it for gym workout and tai chi...so use it an hour at a time.it is too uncomfortable to wear it over ang period of time.

This brace has a hard material along the outside of the thumb, which might protect you from pain. However, depending on the type of injury you have, the hard material might also cause pain if bumped. I suggest that you buy it and try it. If it doesn't work, return it. I believe if you say the reason for return is that the product does not work, your return shipping is free. You might check that with Amazon first.

I sprained my ankle pkaying basketball, and once it was healed although to get back out there I wore this for added assurance. I still wear it whether I play tennis, bball or any other sport that requires quick lateral movement. Highly recommend this product as a preventative brace.

not really - it is designed to maintain a straight leg. I'm using it to support an injured LCL

While this is a decent unloader brace, I don't think it would be enough for you. I used it for an OCD in my knee until I could get surgery. It provided some relief for me but my pain levels were nowhere near what you describe. I would look at the Donjoy line of braces. They are very pricey but for long term use and effectiveness they may better serve your needs. Also, this brace did start to fall apart after about 3 months.

I use the brace to play basketball after my acl replacement. The metal on the sides prevents lateral movement. And the lock prevents hyper extension. Your knee will only bend as it's supposed to. No problem with pushing off and landing. I recommend it.

These will work well for knee cap support, but the Velcro will ware out after a couple weeks of using them (I was doing some pretty vigorous activity) and it got to the point when I put them on but if I bent my knee the Velcro would not be strong enough to hold the straps down, so the braces were useless after that and I ended up buying new ones (I had two btw). So if you get this brace just be gentle with it. Hope I helped!

No lt is not really a brace it is just for support the stabilizers are not that strong they are just wire.

Worth a try. Our kids use it for martial arts training which includes sparring. They have braces top and bottom.

Belt lower back brace works good for me. My back was broken two years ago and this the best lower back brace I have used.Easy to adjust. Can be worn under shirt.

I have one for my rt. knee while it gives the mental effect of stability I would be very careful torquing your foot as this is a much softer brace unlike the ones with sturdier metal supports. It advertises metal but feels very flimsy the three Velcro fasteners I like and very comfortable under pants or jeans but for athletic activity I would worry about it.

Yes. My wife loves it. She says it feels more like a support wrap than a brace.

As far as I know, yes. This was for my daughter and it's her left ankle she needs it for. The packaging didn't specify and I didn't think about that until I just read your question! We went through two similar braces before this one (she broke her ankle in April) and this is by far her favorite. She wears it whenever she plays soccer or lacrosse now, just for additional support, and it's fine with her cleats. She'll wear it during winter basketball, too. Good luck.

Ooops---it's Monday; I mistakenly thought you were asking about a different McDavid product. Anyhow, this brace does give excellent support...sorry about the mix up!
