Looking for a true plus size knee brace that fits
Howdy folks,
I am looking for a knee brace that actually fits. All of the "plus size" braces I am finding are showing that they are not "true to size", don't fit, the velcro doesn't go around, etc. I have a suprapatellar joint effusion and have to be off my knee for three weeks. Unfortunately I can't sit around my house for three weeks...and I can't walk. So crutches it is...but I need a brace, too.
I have big legs. I've tried doing Ace bandages but they keep rolling down and are painful behind my knee.
Any suggestions you have would be most appreciated. This is what I deserve for thinking I could work out by doing Zumba and climbing a freaking mountain at 307 lbs. :o(
Thanks in advance,
Heather

I did a quick Google and found this site-- they make knee braces that go up to a size 6X! Maybe they'd have something that would fit?
