The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) attach at the distal (bottom) end of the femur (thighbone) and proximal (top) end of the tibia (shinbone). The ACL/PCL play an important role in stabilizing the patella (knee).
Often involving a loud “pop”, severe pain and swelling, ACL/PCL tears occur when sudden stops and changes in direction take place. This injury is common with falls and seen frequently in basketball, soccer, volleyball and football.
Weight-bearing activities such as standing and walking are likely to cause increased pain.
Instability is a major concern with individuals suffering from an ACL/PCL injury. Many light-weight bracing options are available to support the patella and prevent hyper-extension/ flexion during daily activity.
Recommended by The Bracing Experts
The GenuTrain S knee brace is designed to support the knee joint for indications of slight instability, arthritis, or osteoarthritis.
The three-dimensional fabric conforms to the body's natural shape for a comfortable fit and optimal joint stabilization.
The brace features adjustable straps, joint sidebars, and viscoelastic pads that provide a massage effect during movement. The integral, ring-shaped pressure cushion surrounding the kneecap provides intermittent compression massage to activate the musculature and stimulate the healing process.
The lateral joint splints guide the knee's movements and can be adjusted to each individual's anatomy. The GenuTrain S can be washed separately in the washing machine and should be regularly washed to retain the compression of the knitted fabric.
