Large NCAA Study

The largest study to date, involved looking at seventy-one schools which were members of Division 1 of the NCAA, to assess whether the use of so-called "preventive braces for the knee" was associated with a decrease in either the severity or the incidence (or both) of injuries to the knee in collegiate football players. In the first year of the study, the athletes wearing the braces were twice as likely to be injured. In the second year of the study, the risk of injury was increased by 50 percent. In addition to these facts, the braced athletes were much more likely to receive surgical procedures.

There is no known cure for arthritis. Prolotherapy and nutritional supplements can help alleviate, reverse, or end arthritic pain by treating an underlying cause that contributes to degenerative disease, ligament laxity. Strengthening ligaments and other connective tissue can help prevent bone on bone arthritis from developing.
