OP: I can't comment on the brace you purchased. How are you doing with it. It looks cumbersome to me. I use Elastic Supports and I'm headed to 82 this year and have NO DESIRE for any knee surgeries. Been that route with this knee and I believe it made it worse, with arthroscopic cleanout. Long story on my knee and it started to give me trouble at 57 and as I said headed to 82.

You don't say your age, and I know SO MANY ortho doctors say we are on bone on bone status. As lone as one can b end knee and walk, they are NOT bone on bone.

Many get good benefits from Prolotherapy treatments. I've had it done over maybe 10 yrs and had good enough success. My goal is no great feats but to walk and do what I do.
