A member asked:
Is there any supplement to repair ligament in knee. do i need knee cap or just crepe bandage can do. help.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: There are many ligaments in the knee but there is no supplement which can compensate for their function nor "repair" them. Depending on the ligament involved, exercise, bracing or possibly surgery may be needed to overcome the lack of function from that specific ligament
