I would think so; it's quite stretchy and I think you could pull it up over your knee/thigh as needed

Linda, I don't see why not. And it lasts a long time and they give you (2) in the package. Good luck Linda!!!

I bought this for my mother and it is the worst. It's pretty high, so it will go over your knee, but this is nothing more than a glorified plastic bag.

I think it would just barely fit that diameter. My lower thigh is about 43cm in diameter and there is only about 8cm from where the velcro would meet the edge of the brace. Meaning, it would comfortably fit to about 50cm-52cm. If you try to make it fit, it would be too tight and impede venous flow. I would look for a larger brace if I were you.

Its should do the job I squat 150 & trying to keep as low as possible was a common struggle . Now with this knee support keeping low isn't one of my problem areas any longer.

I used this to elevate my lower leg and ankle after surgery. The elevation is 8 inches high with a platform of 15 1/2 inches deep by 21 inches wide......don't know if this would work for you.

I can not see why it wouldn't work after knee replacement. I am not a medical doctor but I do enjoy having this available for traveling and in situations where furniture is extremely low. I do recommend that you be careful when first using it as it may move faster then you expect.

I would have to say yes. I bought mine for my lower back and sometimes I have nerve problems in my knees and buttock area so I invert for a few minuets and the pain goes away. I would think that this would help you as well.

It would be close. My below knee cast is 16" from bottom of the heel to the top of my cast. If you look at the top of the package, it says it is 24". I think it would work. However, no way to know for sure without trying it out!!

It will! Because your legs act as two of the legs the "chair" adjusts to your height well. Your weight is well within limits. Enjoy. This item has enabled many an excursion.

I dont know michael. I think most importantly it's going to come down to your tolerance and what you need from a brace in order to feel support. Myself I like things tighter than looser when it comes to my knee so i opted smaller.

I had knee replacement, both knees. They do not hurt but "tire" very quickly and I do not spend much timebetween chairs. I wonder if copper knee sleeves would help ?????????????? RDS

Yes, it will. I have a bad back, bad knees, and am losing grip in both hands; and, I can handle it.

I agree with the other answers. Depends on where the wounds are. Sounds like something under the knee might work better. You should talk to a physical therapist or your doctor for advice.

Yes, this knee sleeve actually works. I also have a more expensive knee sleeve that I use and the Tommie Copper by far is more comfortable to wear. The one thing I would say is, don't hedge on your size. The size I got was spot-on. This is important for proper fit. Don't go by the size of other knee sleeves you might have worn. before.

Tried it this morning -- it works, but may depend on the size of your leg. Mine are small enough that there's no problem attaching the velcro straps around them.

I am a user. I have a 19.5inch lower thigh just above the knee where the brace fits. I am not a small man and it fits.

I believe so. The Velcro attaches in several different locations to allow for size adjustment. I am an average size man and I have wrapped it around twice and used it on my knee.
