You need to do streching exercise for your knee flexors ( hamstring and calf muscles) also strengthen vastasmedialis muscle ( responsible for last 5 degree extension ) you can do straight leg raising exercise and strength you ankle dorsi flexors KNEE BRACE is not adviced as it will weaken your muscle and reverse physical therapy effecy on you
Good Luck
