Brace On EZ Finger Splint - Essentials Pack (Mid Sizes 4,5,6,7,8,9,10)

Funcionaron muy bien

These splints are incredibly lightweight and effective. They are comfortable to the point that I forgot I was wearing a splint

I have to wear a splint 24/7 for 6 weeks. I refuse to go that long without washing my hands or hair, so a waterproof splint is a wonderful thing. I may have ordered too big. It's hard to measure my pinky accurately since the tape won't curl that tightly, and I thought I was between a couple of sizes that would be covered in the mid essential range. However the 4 still lets my pinky curve, enough to comfortably type. I'm trying to undo a contracture that is bending both joints in and locking them and while my pinky cannot be fully straightened, it can go straighter than this splint makes it go. For now I've stuffed some tissue in under the loop ends to help (removing that for shower time). Now as to what this does right: It blends in very nicely with my skin (having just one color option isn't fair to people with other skin tones but at least this hue works for me). It's lightweight, and strong, and perfectly fine in the shower other than getting slick with soap so I have to be careful not to slip it off. I can sleep comfortably with it on. When it's dry it stays on quite well. It's making my typing a little clumsy but not impossible like the giant wad of tape my doctor put on did. It reaches from finger base to ball of finger tip, unlike many splints I've looked at which would allow the tip to bend. I chafe a little under it and will be relieved when I can stop splinting my finger but it's only an inconvenience rather than a nightmare to have it on. I just wish it had a flatter curve so my finger would be pushed straighter. The pack came with a card saying to email support if the fit was still not quite right, which I did two days ago to explain the issue and ask if they thought a 3 would work (I don't want to blindly spend 18 bucks on the three-pack holding the 3 just to test). There has been no reply, and I am ordering a custom item from Etsy instead.

good quality ,easy to use

Trigger thumb was making it impossible for me to type, which was a problem because I write for a living. A large and clumsy wrap-around neoprene brace worked for preventing trigger contractions but made it impossible to type. The brace covered my thumb entirely, which meant I couldn't feel it or direct it with any accuracy, leading to all kinds of gibberish on the page and keyboard contortions that launched new windows out of the blue, etc. Then I found this little guy. Not only does it fit on my thumb, but I can slide it ever so slightly toward my palm so it's out of the way of the spot where my thumb makes contact with the space bar. Now I can type all day without creating havoc, and that trigger thumb never triggers. Mission accomplished for a great price. Not recommended for lifting heavy objects as the lightweight plastic brace might break under the strain of pressing heavily onto an immobile object. And that would be bad. But this is perfect for me and such an improvement over the wrap-around brace.
