class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What is a knee brace?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A knee brace is a form of support that you wear when you experience pain in your knee.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The brace applies pressure to the knee to help alleviate pain and provide extra support and stabilise the knee joint.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some people wear knee braces to prevent injuries, some wear them for general knee support when performing daily activities.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whilst others wear them when they are returning to activities following an injury.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Knee braces are made from a range of different materials like metal, foam, plastic and elastic.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They also come in a range of different shapes, designs, colours and sizes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Related: <a

class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>When to wear a knee brace for running<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The general advice is to wear a knee brace if you experience knee pain or if you wish to prevent knee injuries from occurring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Knee braces can also be worn during injury rehabilitation to provide more support to the knee during the crucial recovery process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you had an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury, for example, you may be instructed to wear a knee brace after surgery or treatment.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For the best use of a knee brace, speak to a professional so they can guide you and understand the cause of your knee pain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Normally, a knee brace is prescribed as a temporary measure alongside some form of physical therapy to correct any issues that led to the knee pain in the first place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Related: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.runwithcaroline.com\/it-band-syndrome-treatment\/\" data-type=\"post\"

running<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are times when a knee brace should not be worn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you experience acute pain in the knee or trauma to the knee, such as a twist or tear, then it&rsquo;s best to speak to a professional to understand the underlying cause.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, if you notice swelling or you cannot bend or straighten out your knee, then these are signs that you need to speak with your doctor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You will want to avoid wearing a knee brace at all until you identify the cause of the pain and discomfort.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Likewise, if you have been wearing a knee brace for a period of time to help with niggling pain, be careful not to rely on the knee brace too much.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Long term use of knee braces may actually increase the number of knee injuries in athletes.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Related: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.runwithcaroline.com\/symptoms-of-overtraining-when-running\/\" data-type=\"post\"

class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What is the best knee brace for running?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are so many knee braces on the market nowadays, it can be hard to choose the right one.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You&rsquo;ll want a knee brace that meets your needs.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Typically, knee braces are categorised into the following three levels of support (1 being the least supportive, 3 being the most supportive):<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol><li>Compression sleeve knee brace&nbsp;<\/li><li>Patellar knee brace&nbsp;<\/li><li>Medial\/lateral support knee brace<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>#1 Compression sleeve knee brace<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These are the types of knee braces that you slip over your knee like a tight sleeve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sometimes called soft knee braces, compression sleeve knee braces offer the lowest level of support, but are generally safe to use if you experience any form of pain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This brace works by compressing the knee and limiting the amount of swelling, therefore improving movement of the joint.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>#2 Patellar knee brace<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A patellar knee brace works by guiding the knee cap into a more straightened position to take the pressure off the tendon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They are normally prescribed to treat conditions concerning the patella (the knee cap), such as patellofemoral pain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Patellar knee braces typically come in three different forms: a patellar tendon strap, a patellar compression sleeve, and a patellofemoral offloader.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>#3 Medial\/lateral support knee brace<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A medial\/lateral knee brace works by preventing the knee from caving in and out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These braces are typically made of strong, hinged materials like plastic and straps.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They are used to protect ligaments of the knee against sprains and tears. They also protect the ACL by protecting against rotational forces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For meniscus tear injuries, you can also find &lsquo;offloading&rsquo; knee braces in this category. They work by taking the pressure off the meniscus after a tear or surgery.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Related: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.runwithcaroline.com\/how-to-recover-after-a-bad-run\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"5145\">How to recover after a bad run: 8 ways to bounce back<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Where to buy a knee brace for running<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Now you know more about knee braces, here are our top picks for knee braces for running:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Best budget knee brace:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.boots.com\/boots-adjustable-knee-support-one-size-10289939\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Boots Adjustable Knee Support<\/a> (&pound;18)<\/li><li><strong>Best for protection: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.decathlon.co.uk\/p\/adult-right-left-knee-brace-for-ligament-support-strong-900-black\/_\/R-p-309543?mc=8573263\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Decathlon Knee Brace for Ligament Support<\/a> (&pound;39.99)<\/li><li><strong>Best for muscle recovery:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wiggle.co.uk\/2xu-flex-recovery-compression-leg-sleeves\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">2XU Flex Recovery Compression Leg Sleeves<\/a> (&pound;45)<\/li><li><strong>Best for everyday use:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/getabearhug.com\/products\/knee-support?awc=29671_1664093257_2d644290f754f67f2a6ae0faeb7043be\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Bearhug Running Knee Compression Support Sleeve<\/a> (&pound;24.99)<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.runwithcaroline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/knee-brace-for-running-4-683x1024.png\" alt=\"knee brace for running\" class=\"wp-image-8978\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.runwithcaroline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/knee-brace-for-running-4-683x1024.png 683w, https:\/\/www.runwithcaroline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/knee-brace-for-running-4-200x300.png 200w, https:\/\/www.runwithcaroline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/knee-brace-for-running-4-768x1152.png 768w, https:\/\/www.runwithcaroline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/knee-brace-for-running-4-640x960.png 640w, https:\/\/www.runwithcaroline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/knee-brace-for-running-4-720x1080.png 720w, https:\/\/www.runwithcaroline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/knee-brace-for-running-4-800x1200.png 800w, https:\/\/www.runwithcaroline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/knee-brace-for-running-4-150x225.png 150w, https:\/\/www.runwithcaroline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/knee-brace-for-running-4.png 1000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 760px) calc(100vw -
