Coming back to sport after ACL - brace or no brace?
I’m 8 months out from ACL reconstruction (patellar graft) and finally getting back to soccer and some casual basketball. My knee feels stable most of the time, but I still get a little nervous with cutting and jumping.
My physio said a functional brace might help with confidence, especially for the first year back. I’ve been looking at the Össur CTi3 because it seems lighter than some of the other options, and people say it doesn’t slip down during activity.
Has anyone here actually used it for sport? Did it get in the way at all?
Appreciate any advice.
