BraceAbility Finger Support for Tendonitis, Arthritis, Sprains, Thumbs, Wrist Splints, Stabilizer Brace and Forearm Support (Large - Right Hand)

Perfect size and fast shipping thanks very much

I had a thumb joint replacement on my left hand and a brace was required after six weeks in a cast. I am six days out from having the cast removed and have another five weeks where the brace will be necessary. My surgeon provided a universal brace that was huge on my hand, no padding at all so it was also very painful to wear. After two days, I ordered this brace in my size, an extra small, and it fits my hand well. After six weeks in a cast, my hand is not yet flexible enough to be in any other position except the one my surgeon gave me for my cast. That was a concern for me so I was relieved to find this brace puts my thumb in an anatomically correct position. My incision site is still very bruised and painful and my skin is hypersensitive right now. The padding in this brace is pretty good and would do well, I think, if my hand did not have the bruising from my cast and soreness that comes with surgery. I have addressed this by adding a piece of foam to further cushion the area around my incision. I think this will not be necessary once I heal up more, but the brace has adjustable straps that allow for the extra padding and I am comfortable wearing it. To be honest, I was hesitant to purchase this brace because there were a number of negative reviews, but BraceAbility indicated they had updated the brace in 2019 based on those same negative comments. That impressed me because not many manufacturers seem to do that so I decided to give it a try. It appears to me they did an excellent job of addressing the negative issues. This brace has size options and my size fits, it is well-padded and adjustable without a surplus length of straps hanging over. The ribbed, soft fabric that is under the straps could have been a bit longer for me because it didn't quite keep the straps from lying against the top of my hand. Were my skin not so sensitive right now, I don't think it would be a problem. I cannot speak to the longevity of this brace since I have only been using it for a few days. In my case, if it lasts for another five weeks, it will be money well-spent. I will say it appears to be well made and sturdy. If it turns out otherwise, I will pop back and update this review. For now, I have to say this brace is stellar.

Excellent quality and easy to wear. It does hold the wrist and thumb fixed amd can wear it all day.

I returned this brace, but it is a great design, no stitching to rub your thumb to blister. It allows a bit to much hand movement again not bad, the straps are way to long, I would have had to cut the excess off and didn't think I should have to do that update decided not to return. it is very large for a medium but I am wearing it at night and has done wonders for my sleep

I bought this as I suffered from De Quervain's Tenosynovitis The product helps restrict my thumb movement and aided my recovery. It is comfortable to wear it throughout the day and even while sleeping. The material is thick and has limited circulation so u might perspire if not used it in a cool environment. You should use an antibacterial wet wipes to clean if you perspire a lot. I bought this in addition to two different one as this guard is more rigid and I wear it if I am gonna be in an Aircon room the whole day or when I sleep at night.
