The Donjoy Lateral J Knee Brace helps improve patella tracking and reduce mild pain associated with patellar subluxation, dislocations or lateral patellofemoral malalignment. The tubular buttress insert and bifurcated tension strap direct forces medially providing inferior and lateral patella stabilization. Tracking is improved and stress on the underside of the kneecap is reduced with activities like walking or climbing stairs.  The Donjoy Lateral J knee brace without hinge is often used to treat chondromalacia, patella tracking conditions, subluxations/dislocations, and overall alignment of the patellofemoral joint.  The product has spiral stays on the sides to help it maintain its shape and not roll down on the sides.  It's available in standard Neoprene or breathable Drytex material for use in warmer climates.
