"By nature, I’m a skeptic. When my brother-in-law suggested I try an elastic band for my carpal tunnel problems, I quietly laughed. After explaining to me that the band was impregnated with semiconductors, I laughed some more. In fact, I continued laughing while wearing a band immediately after a particularly painful episode of my condition. However, my laughter stopped when I realized something--the band, in fact, did work!
Unfortunately, the "band" was given to me after I went through several months of conventional treatment for my condition. This included the use of a fitted removable cast in addition to two to three hour-long hand therapy sessions over a period of six weeks. I am curious as to whether or not the use of the "band" would have shortened the treatment time."

Within a one-year period, one out of every three fishermen will have an injury. Out of every three of these injuries, one will involve the knee. Of all the injuries that occur in the knee, those affecting the knee cap are the most common. A variety of names have been given to this injury, most commonly chondromalacia or fisherman's knee.

Fisherman's knee pain usually comes on gradually. Unlike a skiing injury where symptoms occur abruptly, the fisherman's knee pain occurs radually
over a period of weeks or even months. The pain is difficult to localize. However, it is usually in the front of the knee around the kneecap.

Clues

When sliding into the driver's seat, all of your weight is on your left leg.

Those with fisherman's knee who use a clutch will also notice that the left knee is ncomfortable when depressing the clutch.) ïstiff or achy knee after prolonged sitting ï discomfort when squatting, kneeling or hopping (Doing squats or leg extensions in the gym may be the cause of the knee damage.) ïpain when walking downstairs; ccasionally when walking upstairs ïpain with lateral thrusting movements such as those used in racquet sports or aerobics.
