Thread: Hunting with a knee injury

Not far from knee replacement myself, I'm on slow release ibuprofen (brufin sr 800) twice a day which helps but also this brace which stableises the knee. It was custom made after referral from the specialist but similar off the shelf ones are available. The two pockets each side of the knee hole contain hinged stainless bars which prevent sideways movement.
I wear it if a bit of hill walking is on the cards along with carrying a hill stick which doubles as a shooting stick.
I have to dab a little Vaseline on the hinges occasionally as they tend to squeak otherwise. Still squeaking sounds better than the crack, pop, graunch if I don't wear it,
