The Spiral elastic knee does not contain Latex. Very few of our braces do. If you have one particularly that you'd like to know we can check for you.

Can this brace be worn in the water... For waterpolo?
Question by: Scott Scholz on Aug 20, 2012, 10:40 AM
Yes it should be rinsed with tap water after and allowed to air dry.

I have a loose MCL, and I use a hinged brace for sports and exercise. I'm looking for a sleeve with some lateral support for daily wear, and I'm wondering how much support does the spiral stays provide. Thanks.

Hello Mike,
The Donjoy Spiral Elastic Sleeve is comparable to a Knee Sleeve used for mild support and compression. It has a Medial and Lateral Upright that is flexible, easy to bend. I recommend this knee sleeve for general wear, with walking. If you need additional support I recommend a Knee Brace with Rigid Uprights.

is there a restriction on using this support for diabetics

There are no restrictions for diabetics wearing the brace, although you do need to make sure that your brace is too tight and always inspect you skin after use.

I recently found out I tore the cartilage in my left knee. I haven't found out yet if I need surgery. I also have arthritis and Osgood Slaughter in the same knee. What brace should I look at purchasing as I bowl a few times a week and work out 5 to 6 days a week.
Thanks,
Thanks,

I would suggest the Reaction Web Knee Brace. This brace will give you support in the anterior knee and decrease anerior knee pain. If you find that you have compartmental arthritis you could choose the OA Reaction instead an unload that painful compartment as well as decreasing anterior knee pain. https://www.donjoystore.com/donjoy-reaction-knee-brace

I had arthoscopic surgery @ Mayo in AZ.
It was my choice not to have complete reconstruction, I also have a complete ACL tear as well as meniscus damage etc. I opted not for the reconstruction because of the 6+ month rehab.
No more tennis, jogging or downhill skiing with no ACL, & I guess I'll live w/that.
However; I DO still want to ride my bike (50+ miles week) and taking long walks
at 5+ miles per outing.
SO . . . what type of sleeve &/or brace should I purchase knowing I do not have an ACL but still want to bike & walk.

The Playmaker II will give you some mild protection for the ACL as well as the other ligament of the knee. This brace would be sufficient for someone who is not doing strenuous wieght bearing activity and yet still needs some protection. https://www.donjoystore.com/donjoy-playmaker-ii-knee-brace

I have arthritis and just had a cortisone shot which helped ease the pain in front of the knee. However, did not help in alleviating back of knee pain which is mostly on right side of back of knee.. Hurts more after sitting awhile and then standing. I have an old bulky knee brace and it does compress the back of the knee a bit and it is helping. Like to get something less bulky.

The DonJoy Spiral Knee Sleeve would provide compression to the knee and might be a little less cumbersome that what you are wearing now
Answer by: Admin on Dec 7, 2015, 6:22 AM
Does donjoy offer an elastic knee support with support springs that are slightly bent at rest. The ones that the stays are straight don't seem to offer me comfort for whatever reason.
Question by: Jim on Jan 7, 2016, 6:29 AM
No Im sorry we do not.

I have arthritis in my knee which causes burning on the side of my knee when I do aerobics, will this brace help to allow me to continue to do my cardio workout?
Question by: Verlicia Hayes-Keen on Sep 6, 2016, 8:33 PM
Without a diagnosis of the injury we cannot accurately recommend a brace, but the DonJoy Spiral Elastic Knee Sleeve will will provide compression and mild support.
