Injured my knee and looking for a good compression knee sleeve

Hi, I recently started running and injured my knee. I’m looking for a good compression knee sleeve to see if it will help me continue to workout. Has anyone here tried a compression knee sleeve by Grip Power Pads? It looks great online, but I just wanted some advice before I make a purchase. Thanks.

I didn't try that particular brand. But I am sure you can consult the pharmacy or medical store and ask which one is recommended. And try buying a compression sleeve as soon as possible. Icing and compression are few things which should be applied ASAP to make the condition better.

Have you been to the doctor and given a diagnosis?
What type of injury is it? Depending on the injury have you iced it? Need more info. on your injury!

My advice is to first, if you haven't already done so, find out what the injury is.  Sleeves are used for injuries that have been "fixed" but still hurt or for inflammation or tendon problems that can't be fixed.  But if you have a tear or other injury obviously the sleeve won't fix it and it will continue to worsen.  Find out what's wrong first.
