jumping knee essentially, mainly from playing badminton and all the jumping around. we got her KT tape, but want something she can wear around not just for sports.

Two of my girls already have knee braces (one of them on both knees). Being a dancer *SUCKS*. I have zero advice on this front. -- nm - Mop Apr 20, 08:28 2
- what kind of braces? any specific brand? -- nm - Beaker Apr 20, 08:29 1
  - No idea. Big and black and bulky. Sometimes they use KT tape just to mix it up. -- nm - Mop Apr 20, 08:44
Dealing with plantar fasciitis right now. Stretch the calf muscles. The tendons at the back of the leg connect to the tendons under the foot - TWuG Apr 20, 08:15
Knee bone's (not) connected to the plantar fasciitis bone. - sycor Apr 20, 07:54

- It was mostly about arch support for me. Insoles helped. -- nm - mara Apr 20, 08:19
- for me it is ALL about the shoes. If i wear crappy thin-soled flat shoes, i really notice it. -- nm* - Andie Apr 20, 07:38
- NOT wearing flip flops really helped me when i had it. that was my big issue... -- nm - colin Apr 20, 07:37 2
  - yup, I was told to never wear them -- nm - decline Apr 20, 07:39 1
    - the higher end berkenstocks work okay because they have a shaped food bed, but i still try to limit my time in them. -- nm - colin Apr 20, 07:53
- Thanks! we are going looking for new shoes this weekend for her -- nm - Beaker Apr 20, 07:35
- electro-shock therapy also works wonders - decline Apr 20, 07:33
I've got a few of those lying around for when my knee is giving me grief. - Pachypodium baronii Apr 20, 07:18
