Immobilization & Protection
Following a knee fracture, limiting motion is often necessary to allow proper bone healing. Knee immobilizers are commonly used in early stages to prevent bending and protect the joint.
Transitioning to Controlled Motion
As healing progresses, a hinged knee brace may allow gradual increases in movement while maintaining protection. Always follow your physician’s or surgeon’s instructions for safe progression.
Recovery & Activity Guidance
Weight-bearing status and movement restrictions vary depending on the type and severity of fracture. Proper bracing can support walking, transfers, and rehabilitation when medically cleared.
Prescription & Tax Exemption (When Applicable)
Some rigid knee braces and immobilizers may qualify as tax-exempt with a valid prescription in Canada. If you have a prescription, you can submit it for review and tax-exempt processing where eligible.
