Photo of the day - February 13, 2007

Two years to the day before knee surgery was when I got my first knee brace. It was a J-brace and I hated it.  It hurt. It was too tight around my knee. I only wore the brace from the doctors office to home and then maybe 15 minutes later took it off because it hurt too bad.

When I went to a different specialist, he said the kind that aren't fully adjustable and go by the size of your thigh don't work on people with skinny legs or people with fat legs because the knee cap isn't proportioned right. I knew it but was glad someone confirmed it.
