About this product
This rigid stirrup ankle brace is recommended for acute injuries or for tender and swollen ankles. It has two compartments, one of gel and one of air, that conform to the ankle and help give a more comfortable fit, while the rigid plastic shell adds protection. The top bladder comes pre-filled with air, and the bottom bladder can be used for cold therapy. Rigid thermoplastic shells and an adjustable heel strap hold the ankle securely, and the brace can be worn during athletic activity. This listing is the small size, 8.5 inches.

A stirrup ankle brace supports the sides of the ankle to limit rolling while still allowing walking. Place the shells on the inside and outside of the ankle with the heel strap under the heel, then fasten the straps so the brace is snug but not tight. For cold therapy, follow the product instructions for the bottom bladder. Wear the brace inside a supportive shoe, check for pressure points, and follow your doctor or physical therapist's advice on when to wear it during recovery and return to sport.
