Hi,
I have been through 2 Boston Braces in the past 2 months or so (they both failed to give any correction) and now I have a Boston Brace with what the ortho calls "dynamic padding." Basically it has the normal 3 straps on the back, but then it has 2 straps on the front that are similar to those on a ski boot that are used to make the boot tighter. The ski boot buckles are used to make the pads tighter to my body in order to get better correction. The in-brace xray shows excellent correction with this thing, but it hurts me like crazy. The pain is far worse than my other 2 braces and I can't wear it for more than 3 hours or so at a time because it hurts so badly. If anyone has had any experience with these "dynamic pads", advice or info would be greatly appreciated.
