    Hi all,

    Not sure if I'm posting this in the right section.

    I've been experiencing pain in the middle of my left knee cap for a couple of months, it seems to have improved after strengthening as well as cutting down the number of times I play.

    Would like to get a knee support/guard for extra support and stability, but there's too many different types available (ie. open/closed patella, velcro or a slip in kind), whats the difference between these type of knee guard? And if I'm using it specifically for badminton, do I have to buy a sports knee guard instead?

    Would appreciate if anyone could give me some advise.

    Regards.
