A member asked:

Please advise if it's okay to wear a knee support while working out in gym, even if your knee is not hurting?

A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dr. Bernard Bach Jr answered

It's ok.: But why would you wear it if your knee does not hurt? It may limit your range of motion with certain exercises.
