ABSTRACT:
A dynamic ankle brace which includes a U-shaped felt pad contoured to fit about the lateral malleolus of the ankle and an elastic strap member connected to the U-shaped pad and adapted to be wrapped about the foot and ankle to apply pressure to the pad and ankle and to maintain the ankle and foot in a position of stability. The ankle brace may be used to replace conventional taping of the ankle to prevent ankle sprains, or for therapeutic purposes to provide stability and offer compression to diminish swelling after removal of a plaster cast or after surgery on the foot or ankle.
