Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of ankle and foot orthopedic instruments, in particular to a brace for post-operation of ankle arthroscopy. Background Art

[0002] Patients need to wear braces after ankle arthroscopy. Existing ankle-foot braces, such as described in the Chinese patent with publication number CN203693853U and publication date 2014-07-09, generally include a shell, a sheath, and a restraining strap, wherein the shell fits the patient's ankle and foot structure, the sheath fits the patient's skin, and the restraining strap is used to restrain the brace at the patient's ankle and foot. The sheath is composed of a leg side sheath, a foot side sheath, and an ankle side sheath, which are sewn together and wrapped on the shell.

[0003] However, during the recovery period after ankle arthroscopy, the patient's wound still needs to be regularly smeared with medicine. If the patient wears the ankle-foot brace described in the above scheme, it is easy for the medicine or stains to be contaminated onto the surface of the sheath, which can easily lead to cross infection of the wound in the long run and prolong the recovery time.
