Donjoy Stabilax Elastic Knitted Knee Sleeve with Removable Hinges

Knee pain can be caused by a wide range of injuries, from chronic knee instability to a torn ligament. When you're recovering from an injury or are looking to return to sporting activities, it's important that you do your best to stabilise the area and therefore prevent further discomfort. The Donjoy Stabilax Elastic Knitted Knee Sleeve with Removable Hinges is anatomical in design to provide superior compression to the area for improved stability and support.

Is This Support Suitable for MCL Tears?

While this support can provide suitable support for mild to moderate MCL injuries, severe or recent tears may require more support. In these cases, we recommend the Ossur Form Fit Hinged Knee Support.
