Orthopedic braces are the devices used to strengthen and support the muscles and joints of knee, back, ankle, neck, hip, elbow, wrist, and fingers. These are used for controlling the movement of limbs and joints as well as to rectify structural deformities. These braces are designed to provide mechanical strength and support to alleviate pain due to sprain, strain, and other musculoskeletal disorders. The applications of braces include osteoarthritic care, injury treatment & prevention, and postoperative care.
