For now I would forget about cycling to paris if you still wanna be walking afterwards, those neoprene supports aren't worth shit if you have serious damage, so you might as well throw that away.
Yes there are much better knee supports out there but they are very expensive, if you want better take a look at these:

You'll look and feel like robocop, but at least your knee will thank you, not sure about secret remedies, but regular stretching will help a lot, and I have found light swimming good for getting the blood pumping through a joint without stressing it too much, the usual glucosamine chondroitin MSM combo can help a bit too.
