Importance of knee brace

Knee pads refer to an item used to protect people’s knees. It has the functions of sports protection, cold protection and warmth, and joint maintenance. It is divided into sports knee pads and health knee pads. It is suitable for athletes, middle-aged and elderly people, and patients with knee diseases.
In modern sports, the use of knee pads is very extensive. The knee is not only an extremely important part in sports, but also a relatively fragile and easily injured part. It is also extremely painful when injured and slow to recover. Some people may even experience faint pain on rainy and cloudy days.
It can reduce and avoid injury to a certain extent, and it can also prevent cold when used in winter.

Suitable for the elderly
Studies have shown that just walking on the flat ground, the knee bears the pressure 3-5 times higher than your weight. For overweight and obese elderly people, their knees will be overwhelmed.
Wearing a knee pad is a simple and effective way for the elderly to protect their knee joints, especially for elderly people with a body mass index higher than 24, that is, the weight (kg divided by the height of square meters 2). For example, an elderly person who is 1.55 meters tall and weighs 65 kilograms has a body mass index of 27, which is obviously overweight. Such an elderly person should wear knee pads.
The knee joint is where the upper and lower leg bones meet, with a meniscus in the middle and a patella in the front. The patella is stretched by two fleshy bones, suspended before the intersection of the leg bones, and slides easily.
In normal life, because it is not affected by external forces and does not exercise vigorously, the patella of the elderly can still move normally in a small range at the knee. However, the patella of the elderly ages quickly. Once the force is improperly applied, the knee pad is a “powerful weapon” to protect the patella of the elderly from slipping away from the original position. If the knee joint has been injured or disease occurs, the use of knee pads can also reduce the bending of the knee and help the thigh and calf maintain a straight line, thereby protecting the knee joint from aggravating the condition.
In addition to protecting the knee joints, the knee pads also have a very good warmth retention effect. For the elderly who are getting worse by the day, they can not only prevent the cold, but also prevent the deterioration of the old cold legs. In addition, strengthening exercises and strengthening muscles are also important ways to keep the knee stable. Especially rowing, cycling, etc., are very beneficial to protect the knees. In addition, when using knee pads, it is best to wear them inside the pants.
