Doctor Developed Thumb Support/Finger Splint for Arthritis, Thumb Splint Right or Left Hand, Wrist Support & Thumb Spica Splint with Doctor Handbook - (Back, Single)

Excellent for wrist support… easy to use

The thumb splint supports, left and right, have been fine so far in the few days I have used them (I use both left and right hand splints). There is quite a bit of restriction for everyday modern tasks but by their nature the splints are designed to do a job so it is necessary to trade that off. I have nothing to compare against as this is a first time use (scaphoid and ligament injuries due to an accident) but quality seems very good and easy to fasten without straining the injuries doing so. The only negatives I would report at this stage are: - One size/option for either hand works OK but one side looks slightly odd compared to the other. I.e. it is essentially a right hand glove/fit that can be adapted (easily) to the left hand in reverse but it would be better if it was more neutral each way. Specifically the Velcro fasteners can only be rotated clockwise (ideally the left hand use would be anticlockwise by means of a reversible velcro). - If fixed too tight the circulation can be compromised leading to aches and numbness. The difficulty is it needs to be done up fairly tight to provide the correct support to the thumb. Too tight and it can restrict so it is a balancing act to find the right medium. Overall, I believe I made a good choice for this product which seemed to be a high quality product/design at a competitive price with good reviews to base the decision on. I would recommend this product fully with the caveat I have no other supplier to compare it against and have only had a few days of road testing to date. Happy so far.

Support is designed & made well, really impressed with the relief it has given me today- I suffer from tendonitis in my wrist & since I put it on it hasn't hurt at all & I've been able to go about my daily routine pain free! This is day 1 but a hugely noticeable improvement which compelled me to write this review. Great product 👍

I’ve been very pleased with this product. It arrived on time, well-packaged, and in excellent condition. The quality is solid, and it performs just as described. It’s clear that attention has been given to both design and usability. What I appreciate most is the balance between quality and value — it feels reliable and worth the price. I’ve had no issues so far, and it has met (and even exceeded) my expectations. I’d happily recommend this product to others who are looking for something dependable and effective.

It's very good for carpal tunnel syndrome in pregnancy. It fits well, not too expensive but it's so sweaty and not breathable at all. It's such a shame because it actually massively helps the pain but I have to keep taking it off because it's itchy, sweaty and uncomfortable. Very mixed feelings because of the breathability and how effective it is for releaving pain.

I purchased my original support some months ago, after my original NHS one gave up the ghost. I was prescribed the NHS brace as I have osteoarthriitis and deterioration of the trapezium in the wrist which is rubbing against the metacarpal of my thumb. I get a lot of pain when not wearing the brace and wear it most of the time, except most nights. The NHS support whilst doing the job was ugly and cumbersome. The Dr Arthritis brace was far superior. It's much less bulky, lighter and comfortable and looks so much better. I have a lot more mobility of my wrist and hand whilst still isolating the offending area. I do a lot of yoga, and prior to getting the Dr Arthritis brace I had to balance on knuckles when doing moves like Downward Dog. Now I can do this palm down without pain. A few weeks ago I contacted Dr Arthritis Customer Services as the velcro holding the brace at the top of the thumb had lost its 'adhesion'. I wrote to ask if I could purchase a new brace without the information booklet at a reduced cost. I received a lovely reply within a few hours saying that the velcro should not have stopped working so soon, as the brace was made to last. They replaced my original brace which I received in just a few days later. Since I received the new one it has been well tested. I've just come back from an 8 day yoga retreat and it enabled me to have a great time. It is wonderful to deal with such an efficient and caring company. I can recommend them highly.

It does support your wrist and in that sense I'm happy with it. Not sure if this one has some copper in it, but, if it doesn't maybe that could be added. Normally rational people I know have said that copper bracelets do seem to help them with arthritic type pain and weakness (which is my issue). I don't think the copper would do any harm and it might help too. Not long after I bought this I took a three week holiday. During that three weeks I was relieved of daily chores, didn't exercise (I normally do some weights and a bit of cardio) and didn't play guitar and interrupted learning to play piano (it was the pain while learning piano that prompted me to look for something). Before I left I had been using the wrist support and it did seem to help while it was on. On return from my holiday, where I didn't use the wrist support at all, the pain had eased considerably. Since returning I have used it, and continue to use it, but, especially when doing weights, I am also more careful not to strain my wrist and I wear the support. All in all hard to say how much if anything the wrist band has helped, but, it definitely hasn't done any harm and, at least at the moment, my problem is somewhat reduced. One other thing, the design with the thin strap (but not too thin) between first finger and thumb means you can wash your hands or dishes, a mug, whatever, without getting it sopping wet. Other designs I've seen with wider strapping across the palm don't avoid this potential problem.

Like those a lot. Give you free range of movement. Just not that good, if you want wrist support at night as well - too much movement in the wrists possible. Got longer ones for that now. But the others are great during the day!

Zou het niet meer willen missen.

商品ページに全長が23センチと記載されていますが実際は50センチあります。 マジックテープ部分を除いても41センチ程。 類似商品を見て、私としては長い方が良かったんですが安かった為こちらを購入。 届いた商品を見て「長いな？」と嬉しい誤算でした。 使用感ですが、しっかりと手首を固定してくれてとても満足しています。 それだけに記載ミスは勿体ないですね。

Helfen mir besser schlafen zu können da meine Hand nicht mehr einschläft also was sie sollen würde ich auch immer wieder kaufen

Comfortable, practical and good to wear
