Bracing for activity.
A wide variety of braces is available in an ever-changing market for physicians treating athletes who are in rehabilitation and/or returning to competition. Though helpful and important, braces do not ensure against reinjury. To promote compliance and achieve successful rehabilitation, physicians must understand the nature of the patient's activity, how a given brace works, the anatomy and physiology of the joint, and the patient's expectations and concerns.
