What kind of brace should i get for a stretched mcl? i already have one that keeps my knee straight and need one that allows me to bend it.

Hinge: Don joy makes a "TROM" hinged brace. It is great for this situation. Other makers have similar types of hinged braces. Try googling hinged knee brace for collateral injury. Get the names of the braces and then get on ebay and see if you can get a used one. Or go see a doctor.
