Some indications for the use of elbow pads are:

  • Chronic joint problems in the period of exacerbation;
  • Use of special therapeutic gels and ointments;
  • Joint injuries (during rehabilitation);
  • Joint instability, congenital or after injury;
  • Serious sports loads;
  • Desire to change from an elastic bandage to a more comfortable compression.

In all of these cases, the elbow pad is a great lifesaver, providing moderate fixation of the joint. In addition, it warms and massages the tissues. This method of treatment has a number of advantages:

  • Improved blood circulation at the site of compression;
  • Normalization of blood circulation;
  • Quick effect from the very beginning of use;
  • Comfort at any time of the year, even in the heat.

Athletes often use compression elbow pads, especially in power sports. But that's not the only reason to buy a compression elbow pad. Any power activity, especially vigorous and heavy lifting, can lead to injury. To avoid it, you need to take care of health protection in advance.
Types of protective elbow pads
Most commonly used are classic stocking-shaped elbow pads with a special insert in the elbow area. This protects the joint from damage during activity, but does not restrict the joint and does not interfere with work. These soft elbow pads are worn after injuries or surgeries during rehabilitation and after minor injuries to continue working or training.
