No brace at all. I think she will wear a neoprene sleeve of some sort. The reason for this is she afraid of diving on the basketball court & does not want to wear knee pads.
You would think she would be afraid of cutting but she's not, infact she has been doing it already just fine. She has a small area around the scars that is still numb & this area is getting smaller with time. She feels she might fall and injure it, but not feel it because of the numb areas. I believe this is all based on being 12 yo & still some immaturity.
