How Long Should ACE Proxivon Be Taken For Tennis Leg?
I am suffering from from tenis leg. As per Sonography report there is complete tear of medial head of Gastroonemius but still I can walk with little limping. My Dr. prescribed ACE Proxivon [to be taken when there will be too much pain which is never there] & advised to use long Knee braces 24X7 at least for 3 weeks. But I am more comfortable with crepe bandage. So can I use it in place of Knee braces ? Can I walk while Knee braces are on? How long I will have to continue with ACE Proxivon
