Knee braces are important in injury or for injury prevention, but choosing the right one can be a daunting task. Open and closed patella knee supports are the most common types of knee brace available. Now we will show you the differences between the open patella and closed patella knee support.
The main difference is open patella knee support has a hole in the center of the brace, while in closed patella braces is a closed patella with no holes. Braces with an open patella allow relief of knee pressure and extra knee cap support with proper movement or tracking. Closed patella braces offer compression at the knee cap with the same pressure as the rest of the knee and additional support.
Compared with the closed patella support, the open patella support is more suitable for long-term wearing. During prolonged wear, the closed patella support can sometimes cause or even aggravate the knee joint injury by applying pressure to the patella during exercise and making it off-center or rubbing against the underlying joints.
If your patella is unstable, then you are more suitable to wear open patella support, which will be better for your patella. Athletes engaged in running and other sports usually prefer open patella support because they are lighter and more flexible. The closed patella support provides slightly more support than the open patella support and provides excellent all-around protection for the knee. Therefore, powerlifters and bodybuilders usually prefer the closed patella support.
The following are our common open patella support and closed patella support, hope to help you.
