I've noticed these bands along the arms of football player. What is the medical use of them?
It was a huge fad year past to bring forth, but I realized that people do not use them for their style, they continue to use them every game. There must be a medical benefit (such as a knee brace, or small tight bands athletes use in their upper arms), but what is? Here is a photo with the band I'm talking about. Http: / / blog.syracuse.com/z89/2007/12/large_GreeneFoulsOut.jpg Nah, Kristof Ongenaet is one. Not the type who would wear it for style or tattoos (he has none). Also, Melo would use it for the style. I'm trying to find another picture type of a player not Donte. (One that would be influenced by the style). Imagine the band extends to the whole forearm, because that would be the one he normally used, but I can not find it, http://photos.syracuse.com/photos/post-standard/c4559e94d0fb658bffe4bd6f53ec2312. jpg
It keeps him warm arm handles so they can make better. Some players also used during injury and it is stabilized.
