Compression sleeve vs. KT tapes

A few days ago, I was making a pretty strong statement about how good KT tapes were to wounded muscles and tendons.

Since that time, I've spoken to my son who, as a runner, is suffering – just like me - from chronic calf muscle tears. He recommended that I use compression sleeves instead of tapes and I followed his advice.

Very, very hard to put on, but just great, and none of the trickery involved with applying the tape in mysterious ways around the ailing flesh. The sleeve seems foolproof and a dummy like me can use it without getting it all wrong.
 
So far works as well as the magical tapes and it shows that despite my age, I too can stay flexible and change my mind!
