Hinged Knee Braces

Hinged Knee Braces are used to support the knee joint and surrounding tissues while still allowing a safe degree of flexibility. Hinged knee braces come in many different designs from a large number of manufacturers. A hinged brace for the knee usually consists of some type of wrap that wraps around the leg at the knee, with a hole over the kneecap and hinges on either side of the knee joint.
