A knee and hip fixation brace is a type of brace used to stabilize and support the knee and hip joints, usually made of lightweight materials such as plastic or aluminum alloy, with adjustable joints and fastening straps to suit the needs of different patients. It is mainly used in the following cases: Fracture fixation: Used after surgery for fractures around the knee or hip to help keep the joint stable and promote healing. Postoperative rehabilitation: It is used after knee or hip replacement to limit the range of motion of the joint, prevent dislocation and promote rehabilitation. Ligament damage: For severe knee or hip ligament damage, a brace can provide stability and reduce the risk of re-injury.
