I have talked to my PT about this and my mother and them insisted that braces will just make me weaker and that I should not get any or use any when I'm in pain. They say that I need to strengthen my joints n stuff instead of using braces to take away the pain. Is this true? I don't know who to trust anymore since I've been through so many crappy doctors ( and my mom acts like she knows everything but she doesn't ) Thanks <3
