A member asked:
I run and do resistance training 5-6 days a week. is it important to wear a jockstrap or is it not necessary?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No need : If you start to feel tenderness or irritation with or after running, the extra support may help. If not, then it's probably not needed.
