Knee Pain Relief : Finding the Best Basketball Knee Brace

If you are new to finding a basketball knee support, you might have noticed that there are a ton of different basketball knee braces on the market. The vast number available on the market can make the task seem overwhelming. Once you read through the questions and information below the task will be much more manageable.

Our goal here is to help you, not to advertise a certain brand name to you. Consider the following questions. This way the decision is in your hands. Once you can answer these questions, then you will know how to find the best knee support possible, when you are playing in any sport.

Here are some great questions to ask yourself, when you are looking for a basketball knee brace. The reason why we ask these questions is that there are knee braces specified for these criteria.

1.) Do you have a mild to moderate knee injury? (Several types of knee braces are focused on mild to moderate injuries only, usually they are simple neoprene knee sleeves, or drytex hinged knee supports)

2.) What is your knee pain on a scale 1-10? (Usually, the bigger the knee pain, the bigger the knee support needed.)

3.) Do you have a more severe knee injury, like a tear to your ACL or MCL? (These knee braces usually have a dynmaic hinge on each side of the knee with medial and lateral uprights for support)

4.) Are you trying to prevent a future knee injury?

5.) Do you need a knee brace that will help hold your knee cap in place? (If this is the only issue, usually you do not need a big knee brace, a smaller one will usually suffice)

To make the best choice possible, it is wise to consider your knee issue first, then look to the sport you are playing. – In addition, one rule of thumb is that usually the larger the knee injury, the larger the knee brace.

Several studies have shown that people usually do not need custom knee braces. – This might sound a little bit silly, but we like to ask this question: Are all your clothes custom made? If they are not custom made, we are willing to bet that they probably fit pretty well. Do they not? – The same thing happens with non-custom knee braces, non-custom knee supports usually fit great, plus this means that you get to save some money too.

Alternatives for Treating Knee Pain

We all seem to fall into the same trap when we realize we need to do something to begin treating our knee pain. You may be different but I doubt it or you wouldn’t be thinking of treating your knee pain with something other than what you have been. Maybe you are just now starting to research treating knee pain and that is good, you should be able to shorten your time of healing.

Whatever you are using now, whether over the counter or prescription meds, you are most likely just dealing with the symptoms and not with the cause. Dealing with the cause is the only way to get good results and treat the pain for the future.

Whatever the initial cause, injury, wear and tear, poor diet, the problem now is inflammation and that can be treated with the purpose if eliminating the pain altogether.

You can try the anti inflammatory meds or over the counter ibuprofen products and this may work for a period of time, hours, days or even weeks. However the pain will most likely return. If the cause is just a minor injury you may have good results and not have anymore problems for a long time or ever.

If your knee pain is ongoing however, and has been for some time, whether severe or just nuisance you should be looking at a good source of healing. This will probably not be found in a pain killer but in a good source of nutrition. Why nutrition? Because just think of how your body heals itself now when it can. You cut your finger and your body knows how to heal it. You break a bone and if set properly the bone will heal on its own.

Why not do the same with knee pain? It just means making sure that your body has the proper nutrients to accomplish the task. Okay, so where do I start? You can try to add a lot more fresh fruit to you diet. Why? Because fruits have the best source of phytonutrients and antioxidants of the food groups. What? Yah, well, we are just beginning to learn about all of this. If you research natural healing these are the words that you will see all the time because this is what your body needs to begin to heal.

Can I just get it by eating a lot of fruit everyday? No, you can drink it! This is the simplest way to get 13 servings of fruit everyday and for me it works great. I would like to share this with you at your convenience as soon as you contact me.

Most Knee Pain is Caused by Arthritis

According to the University of Virginia Health System:

Arthritis:

After walking for 6 hours a day, five or six days a week for twenty years, tearing my patellar tendon, having surgery for that and just seeing the years fly by like we all do, this is where I found myself. Knees that were bone on bone, my right kneecap 1/3 worn off, hurting all day and night if I wasn’t taking some kind of pain killer every four or five hours.

What do you do? Just keep going and taking pills until the knees finally totally wear out and you either go sit in a chair or get knee replacement. At least that is what I thought and is what I planned to do.

Until. Until a friend shared something with me that I thought was nuts. Sure Steve, that will work! (sarcastically) But, what did I have to lose? Nothing, just knee pain, so I tried it. He was right and I was wrong, did it ever work! To the tune of pain free with the same knees and feeling at sixty like I did in my thirties, NO PAIN! Amazing, yet true.

I would enjoy helping you achieve this same level of feeling good without prescription meds or pain killers of any kind. Get in touch and let’s get you started too.

Osteoarthritis is the most common type of arthritis that affects the knee. Osteoarthritis is a degenerative process where the cartilage in the joint gradually wears away, and often affects middle-age and older people. Osteoarthritis may be caused by excess stress on the joint such as repeated injury or being overweight.

Rheumatoid arthritis can also affect the knees by causing the joint to become inflamed and by destroying the knee cartilage. Rheumatoid arthritis often affects persons at an earlier age than osteoarthritis.

Leg Pain and Sciatica Gone

So, How is That Chronic Knee Pain Coming Along?

Have you typed chronic knee pain in your Google search lately? Well, yah, that’s probably how you got here. Wow, how many remedies are there anyway? Everyone seems to have a different answer. This exercise or that exercise, swim, lay on the floor and bend your knees, take a slow walk, ride a bicycle, use this rub or that ointment, ice, heat, etc., etc., etc. On and on and on.

Which one do you try? Do you try them all hoping that something will work? Or are you in so much pain that you can’t stand the thought of even trying so there you sit, wishing that you were 25 again?

What does that lead to? Weight gain, depression, or worse, like addiction to pain meds, or stomach ulcers from taking too many over the counter pain relievers. You have then chewed so many antacids that they all taste like chalk? Well, at least your bone density should be better. But, chronic means chronic so the knee pain is back after about 3 or 4 hours.

Obviously knee pain is caused by a number of things. Injury, osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, too much weight, sports, running on hard surfaces for too many years, carrying heavy loads on the job. Is there then a different remedy for each cause or is there a possibility that one product or exercise will work for any kind of knee pain?

I found out after trying just about all of the above remedies over many years for my chronic knee pain that there are some products on the market that may help each one of us. As in most cases, different people have slightly different results and over a varying period of time. There is nothing that can be said to take care of it in X number of hours or days.

I actually went from 40 ibuprofen each week for my chronic knee pain to zero in about 45-60 days. A friend took far less, others a little longer. Our bodies are a miracle but they need the proper fuel.

I would like to share with you what worked for me when you have the time. Contact me to set up a time, lets talk about how you can get back to feeling the way you want to, chronic knee pain gone!
