  1. Braces: These are orthopaedic devices designed to support, stabilize, or correct the position of a joint or limb. Common types include: 
    • Knee braces: Support the knee during recovery from injuries or surgeries. 
    • Wrist braces: Provide stability for conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome or after fractures. 
    • Ankle braces: Help prevent or manage ankle sprains and provide support during physical activity. 
  2. Orthotic Devices: These are custom-made or over-the-counter inserts or supports for shoes, designed to correct foot and lower limb problems. They can help with conditions like plantar fasciitis or flat feet. 
  3. Splints: These devices immobilize a specific body part to allow healing, often used for fractures, sprains, or post-surgery. 
  4. Supportive Straps and Wraps: These provide additional support and compression for joints or muscles during activity or recovery. 
  5. Assistive Devices: These include tools like crutches and walkers, which aid mobility and assist individuals in moving safely after an injury or surgery. 


Overall, braces and devices play a crucial role in rehabilitation, injury prevention, and enhancing mobility, helping individuals regain function and independence.
