After anterior cruciate ligament or ACL surgery, your reconstructed ligament will take some time to heal. During this healing process some doctors may encourage the use of a knee brace to help protect and support the knee.

So, the question remains – should you brace or not brace following your ACL surgery? To tackle this question, let’s look at what a knee brace does, and the pros and cons associated with your recovery.
