I need a full knee replacement, but I can鈥檛 have it till I鈥檓 65 and I鈥檓 quite overweight. I had to get my husband to help me put my socks on because I hurt my knee. Now my knee is better and I鈥檓 just using it because it鈥檚 easier. Very helpful indeed. I鈥檝e only use it a few times so I鈥檓 not sure how long it will last, but I will just keep sewing them up need be. Remember to slide the whole sock on
