FEATOL Carpal Tunnel Wrist Brace | Night Sleep Support Brace, Removable Metal Wrist Splint- Hot/Ice Pack, Left Hand, Large/X-Large, Adjustable Hand Brace for Men, Women, Relieve and Treat Wrist Pain

I tried 3 other braces and this one is the best by far; firm and comfortable, it keeps me from overextending that hand, because I'll forget and...ouch! Even if the little cold pack is small, just having it in place for 20 minutes or so helped a lot. I then removed the ice pack and wore the brace while sleeping. Carpal tunnel pain have abated and almost eliminated, but I have been forgetful and not used the brace every night as I should. I have been forgetful BECAUSE this brace works well!! Just remember to use caution with the wrist during the day and NOT DO the things that aggravate the inflammation because it can come back. And try to become more familiar with the location of the keys and STOP using those legs that tilt up your keyboard. This is exactly the wrong position to hold your wrists while typing.

Doctor issued splint and ace wrap did not limit my mobility as much as this does to allow my fractured wrist to heal. It also left me uncomfortably bound by the ace wrap and "itching" to remove it whenever possible. Also limited my finger use and grip as the issued brace extended most of the way to my finger tips. This brace, however, is more supportive, comfortable, well ventilated, and with the included ice/heat pad, it encourages me to use the ice therapy as prescribed in a comfortable way. I sometimes forget I even had the ice pad on until has become thawed and warm although I'm sure it's has done it's work by then. A VERY effective brace and would recommend for wrist injuries.

CONTEXT: Over the last 6 months both my wrists and forearms, but especially the left, were going numb/asleep during the night which would interrupt my sleep and persist into the morning. After a little online research, it seemed the most likely cause was pressure on the nerves in my wrists during sleep, and one of the treatments was a wrist brace. RESULTS: I've had them now for several weeks and, while I only wear them to bed, I've seen a major improvement. I sleep better and I don't have the alarming tingling sensations in my wrists and fingers that I was experiencing before. I have also observed the return of those symptoms when I sleep without the wrist braces, so I'm confident they are effectual. Experience and ADVICE: Wearing these takes just a little getting used to, but they are not uncomfortable or disruptive to sleep. It is best to be done handling things once wearing them as they interfere with your palm. If you overtighten them, you will quickly make your hands purple and put them asleep, so I recommend flexing your wrist up or down when putting it on, in order to slightly enlarge the circumference that the straps encircle before setting them.

This brace is great for my carpal tunnel! I literally tried five other braces and this one is the most snug and comfortable. You can adjust the three straps to make it as tight or loose as you want. The best thing is the long middle strap which tightens right around my wrist where it is most needed. Although it takes a little more time to adjust the three straps, versus those that have one or two, it is totally worth it for a firm brace that keeps my wrist from moving. The material is very soft and the slippery inner lining feels nice against my skin. The Velcro straps hold strong. I haven’t tried the hot/cold pack but will probably use it warm during the cold months when things ache more from the cold. I like this brace so much I ordered a second one to have a back up when this gets washed. It holds my entire hand and wrist firmly in place and adjusts easily so it is just the right tightness.

Early this year, I was diagnosed with De Quervain's tenosynovitis in my right wrist. I bought a pair of these wrist braces (one gray and one black), and I have found they work quite well in alleviating the pain while still allowing enough freedom of movement for daily tasks. I have had these for about three months, and wear them both during the day and at night. The quality and comfort are excellent. In my opinion, the customer service of Featol is exceptional. Because I have a smaller forearm than most, the upper strap was a little loose. I contacted Featol customer service to ask if they had any suggestions. They were extremely courteous and helpful, even to the point of making a small design change to the brace and sending me replacements. The new braces could not be more perfect. I highly recommend Featol, and would buy these braces again.
