A member asked:

Should you tape your quad to help support it in a soccer game? what type of tape should you use

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Taping: Taping muscle can aid in recovering from injury. Spider taping has been used in athletes for this purpose, with some good results reported. There is no need to tape a muscle if you are healthy, without injury.
