scar tissue
had an knee injury going on 6yrs now. had two key hole surgeries for cartilage and an open decompression. followed by experimental injections of alcohol and local anesthetic to kill the nerve endings to reduce the pain (last inject over 1yr ago now). since then i have had no end to pain with swelling, lack of flexibility when i walk, stand and even when i wake up. any light on what it could be? any advice much appreciated.

The Simply Stable VOS, valgus overload stabilizer elbow brace is designed to help control valgus overload stresses during functional overhead motions. The overhead motions associated with throwing, tennis and volleyball put a tremendous stress on the elbow joint and ulnar collateral ligament (UCL).
