Kugadzirisa matambudziko
If you encounter any issues with your knee brace, consider the following:
- Brace feels too tight or loose: Re-measure your thigh circumference and compare it to the sizing chart. Adjust the straps for optimal compression. If the size is incorrect, consider exchanging for a different size.
- Brace slides down or rotates: Ensure the straps are fastened securely and evenly. The brace should be snug but not uncomfortable. Proper sizing is crucial to prevent slippage.
- Discomfort or skin irritation: Ensure the brace is clean and dry before application. If irritation persists, discontinue use and consult a healthcare professional. Check for any folds or creases in the material that might be causing pressure points.
- Hinges are stiff: The hinges are designed for stability. If they feel excessively stiff or impede natural movement more than expected, ensure the brace is correctly positioned and not overtightened.
