Knee straps?

[GAmom]

I've ordered a couple knee straps that should be arriving soon. I've been having knee pain when I walk upstairs. I'm thinking it maybe a patella tracking issue. Felt some relief when I used a bandage just below the knee cap. Just wondering if anyone here has used them and if they have found them beneficial? Also does anyone find that they delay healing?


Any opinions?

Thanks!

I've used an ITband strap off and on when I've had issues for a few years. It usually helps and I can stop wearing it after a couple of months. I only have to use it when I run or do workouts with a lot of squatting.
