Support and compression for knee joint in mild sprain/strain, knee pain, ligament laxity, early osteoarthritis, sports overuse, swelling/edema; post-injury or post-operative support as advised

Can be worn over a thin cotton stockinette if sensitive skin; remove during sleep unless advised. Hand wash with mild soap; air dry away from heat.
