I am not a runner so I can not answer this. But it helps my knee when I play racquetball which involve a lots of running too.

This brace helped me for several years with a strained knee from constantly playing full court basketball. I am unfamiliar with runners knee.

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

I do not have an answer for that question. Believe it could be googled for an answer. I can offer the opinion that this product, with sulfate ingredients, is working well for me by reducing swellinng and pain in the knee joint.

I'm not sure Dorothy. I purchased it for a knee replacement. I would check with your doctor.

I have used it on my knee and it appeared to alleviate the pain but not reduce it to zero

It will support the knee joint and help with swelling - but don't forget to strengthen your quads! Simple exercises like the ones in "Treat Your Own Knee Arthritis" can give a knee much stability as well.

A friend of ours used one of these when he had his knee surgery and swears it's the reason for his good results. Good luck!

Not that I know of but have to ask the manufacturer. Per my experience I've found it to be a huge help for: faster soft tissue recovery from sprains, strains, tears, soreness, bruising, or just joint or muscle weakness. Can be use as prevention to add strength or support to an area of shoulders, arms, legs or back for sport or physical effort of many types. Introduced by a licensed Physical Therapist Ada Wells of Alameda - she might be able to better answer your question.

The purpose of the product is to be a stabilizer for injured or sore knees. The stabilization effect is minimal. The side supports in this brace are oddly placed and cause pain as it presses on some areas. It increased my knee pain. I was not happy with the product.

Marguerite, since your situation involves several surgeries, I would consult with your doctor on this. It worked for my knee, but then my knee was just sore and my situation did not involve surgery. Make sure that if you use this cream it will not complicate any recovery for you. Take care.

I'm pretty sure it will. Also you will feel better soon. It helped me, with a hip fracture recovery and it helped my older son who injured his groin area. We are running our first 5K next November!!!!!

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!

It does support the knee well. Have found that wearing compression pants under the brace reduces irritation from the heat build up between the skin and the neoprene.

I no longer have the bottle, so I can't answer definitively about the source. I seem to remember something about rooster comb ? More importantly is the fact that it did not help my problem with generally aching knees, and sharp knee pains when I made sudden sideways foot sweeping moves. However, most importantly is that when I tried a different brand, which uses a proprietary fruit blend, for two months, I have gotten very good results; so much so that I have very little problem with my knees. That product is NeoCell Hyaluronic Acid blueberry liquid. It also contains green tea, agave, elderberry, and pomegranate (no chicken parts). It costs a few bucks more, but for me was well worth it.

I don't know if it can prevent them, but it does help support the knee. It gives it that little extra support you may need.

No there is none. My teenage daughter plays sports and used it give her knee support and to keep the heat. She doesn't have any knee pain any more so now my husband uses it when he plays basketball.

It works best for knees, ankles, feet, wrists and elbows where you can wrap it around the joint. However I used it when I had my hip replacement; just had to sit or lie down and lay it over the part that hurts. It's much better than trying to use regular ice or a bag of peas.
