Sorry, but it's kind of hard to believe they don't "help" or "matter".
This is completely anecdotal, but when I wore my knee brace, the doctor told me that it would make me feel more confident in my knee as I recovered but that it wouldn't provide any additional support or protection, so I need to be careful and take it easy in my rehab still. I didn't wear it all that long because it gave me blisters while I ran. I took it off and everything was fine.
I do think they help with MCL's, though.
