I often wear a tight stretchable support on my knee (the one with the replacement and revision) and I keep seeing ads for these "Tommy Copper" copper infused soft braces. I'm very curious to see if they work, but I wanted to check out with you all first. Have any of you had one of these, by any brand, and if so, how did it work? Did you notice a difference from the regular supportive elastic braces?
Thanks for your input.

First of all, you will try anything when your back gets to hurting. What helps one may not help another so I’d give it a go.
I slam wore out my elbow fishing hard. I backhand cast small jigs for large bream & crappie. The repetitive snap made the tendons in my elbow so sore I couldn’t even set the hook bass fishing , couldn’t pick up a shotgun with my left hand. I tried everything under the sun even cortisone shots. I was wearing the copper fit sleeve when I finally got some relief…..so I give it some credit for working. I suffered for about 4 months tho.
