The McDavid 5115 is best for providing support and relief from pain, swelling, and inflammation due to tendonitis, arthritis, or injury. Its highly engineered 4-way stretch elastic material offers a superior fit and compression while minimizing heat retention, making it ideal for people with neoprene allergies. Additionally, the medial and lateral gel buttresses provide targeted soft tissue supportive compression. The McDavid 5115 can be used on either the right or left side.
