Knee supports

[eddieq]

I suffered a knee injury in May.  My PT is going well and the doctor does not want to do surgery at this time.  I was using crutches right after memorial day but moved to a cane within a week or so.  I am off the cane now and I've been weaned off of the hinged brace as of last week.  I've been told I can return to the field this summer/fall (on the bases or doing slow pitch softball) while I continue to work on strength and mobility. Yes, I am primarily a softball umpire.  Don't hate me lol

Do any of you other old fellas use/wear a knee support while working?  I know there are a number of different style compression sleeves out there, but I suspect most of them just function as a wallet flush.

I'd appreciate the benefit of anyone's experience here.  Thanks!
