I play volleyball and my right ankle is really weak and I'm thinking about getting an ankle brace. My dad says i shouldn't though because they just make your ankle weaker. Do they make your ankle weaker and what kind of ankle brace should i get?
A: If you wear the brace only when you're doing sports you're not going to get weaker. You may end up with a serious muscle problem if you don't support your ankle During sports . I recommend FUTURO Sport Ankle Support. I've enclosed a link were you can look at this support and purchase if you desire.
