Ok basically my knees dislocate easily as the groove the patella runs along isn't as curved as it should be resulting in easy dislocations. I have had major knee surgery on my one knee but my other one is still weak, anyway I plan on going to muay thia class next week and I'd like to know what knee brace would give me the most support for my condition! I don't fancy having another dislocation.
I'd like maximum support for preventing dislocation without restricting my movement too much, I'm currently using patella straps on both knees.. I have no idea if they're the correct support or not so if anyone can assist me here I'd really appreciate it.
^ Looks expensive, although I'm sure I'd look the biz walking in sporting such hardware.. I'll keep it in mind.

I'd be a little worried if a guy sparred me with those on. Nobody wants to fight a cyborg.
DonJoy is the brand I used after I blew mine out, supports the knee well and still gives you mobility. They are expensive and I would advise maybe going to a specialist see if they can get you one. They are fitted specifically and last well but cost around 1800 if you don't have insurance.
Im also interested in any recommendations on the correct support. Im currently recovering from a patella dislocation that happened in my muay thai class a few weeks back.
Holy shit I almost crapped my pants that was too funny.

Thanks for that mate but sadly its way out of my price range! I will look into it further though and maybe consider speaking to someone about it.

Measure ur thigh area (circumference) about 7-8inches above knee and below about 7-8 inches, may have a extra one your welcome too. Same thing happened to me but did mine on dirt bikes went down on left knee dislocated knee, patella, and acl damaged and busted the fluid sack under the knee cap.
