For sprains, strains and pulled muscles, use the support in conjunction with the following techniques to provides symptomatic relief :
-
Protection : Provides firm support to injured ankle without restricting movement, helping to prevent further damage
-
Rest : Avoid activity that causes pain in the first 48-72 hours after injury
-
Ice : Cool the injured area as soon as possible for 15-20 minutes every 2-3 hours to limit pain and inflammation
-
Compression : Use the support to apply compression to the affected area, reducing swelling
-

For weak or arthritic joints, wear the support as needed to provide daytime relief from aches, pain and stiffness.
