The knee-support is used to relieve pain from damaged ligaments. The tubular material sheath (3), elasticated in a crosswise direction, is slightly wider at the top and has a circular opening (4) bound with a padded edge (6) for the knee-cap. On each side of the support, one or two seams (7) enclose a flat spiral spring (8) and each seam is divided into an upper (7a) and lower (7b) section, thus forming an angle of 163-168 deg. at the level of the knee-cap.
