WristWidget® (Blue) Adjustable Wrist Brace for TFCC Tears, One Size fits most. For Left and Right Wrists, Support for Weight Bearing Strain, Exercise

Bought this for a TFCC injury. I've got sensitive skin which is irritated easily and all the other straps I've tried I couldn't wear all day. This one though is spot on, no irration and plenty of support. Would definitely recommend and well worth the price.

Ok, so, here we go. I purchased this on a review of another purchaser. He was right. I tore my TCFF, the lovely NHS gave me splint and I just didn’t feel supported. It still hurt, no range of movement. Thought I’d chance this based on other reviews and it’s like it pretty much didn’t happen .. it’s supportive, doesn’t irritate my skin like others have said, and I just wear it without thinking. I’m only a week in to the injury itself, so didn’t have high expectations, but if you are struggling, just order it. 10/10

I've done both my wrists through pushing myself too hard at bouldering. The pain started as a sharp shooting pain on certain wrist movements, like for example picking up a heavy pan by its handled, but thankfully has subsided to a dull ache that flares when lifting something. I tried some 'normal' braces, these helped take out the shooting pain, but did nothing for the dull ache and I only realized once I put these on! My weight bearing is ~48kg for each arm, so apparently classed as a minor injury (>29kg), thankfully. I'm planning to lay of the climbing for about 5-6 weeks and wear these all the time (except in the shower and swimming pool etc), and see how I get on, and certainly wear them for climbing when I go back to it to minimize the risk of further injury. I agree with one of the other reviews on here, these probably cost about 20p each to make, so they seem a little expensive, but I guess it's the science behind them you're paying for... and importantly they do work! They really help with the dull aching. One other negative is the design could have slightly rounder edges as they do 'dig' in the skin a little, but it's nothing major. These are the two factors for 4 and not 5 stars. On youtube they have some videos on how these work, which makes sense when you see them, but effectively they replace the function of the TFCC to hold together the ulnar and radius bones under certain loading conditions. I would definitely recommend watching the fitment video on youtube as it mentions a little more detail about fitting them properly and adjustment for different activities etc, that the box they come in.

UPDATE August 2025 - Following my unfavourable review below, the company sent me a replacement widget, which was a very nice and much appreciated gesture. Hopefully, the replacement is more durable. Purchased in April 2025. OK, I use it almost daily for specific things. Four months later, the Velcro doesn’t really stick anymore. Does the job, but not durable and expensive for what it is. I need another one now; will just buy a cheap Chinese one. Won’t be buying this brand anymore.

Flimsy piece of fabric. Slips. Not helpful. Really not worth the money.

I have suffered from RSI related pain on the thumb side of both wrists for more than 20 years, but about 18 months ago I experienced a really sharp pain on the ulna side of my left wrist (when turning a door handle that I didn't realise had been tightened!!). I strapped it up with one of my many wrist supports I already had and rested it as much as possible. The pain pretty much went away, but a few months later I experienced exactly the same pain (this time from turning he shower knob!!). Out came the variety of wrist supports again for another couple of months. Pain lessened, but never went. Twisted it again on the shower knob a couple of months later! Did some research then about ulna sided pain and came across the wrist widget. (you may ask at this point why I didn't visit my doctor, but that's a long story involving many years of frustration...). Thought I'd give it a try, even though it was a bit pricey Well, at first the pain worsened for a couple of weeks, but then there was a low but noticeable improvement. I wore it 24/7 (either just got it wet in the shower, or wore a plastic bag over my arm. Didn't want to risk the shower knob without it on!!) After a few months I would say the pain had pretty much totally gone. It was at this point I realised I'd actually been wearing the thing the wrong way up for all those months!! The instructions are basic to say the least, and even after watching the videos of how to put it on I has somehow been getting it wrong. I had the harder side against my skin, and the softer side outwards. Ok, I know that seems daft, but it seemed to follow the pictures...I was wearing some "underlay" underneath to stop it scratching too much. So then I started wearing it the right way round, just for security really as the pain was pretty much gone (with the other issues I have with my wrists. it was hard to tell definitively which bit was hurting...). After about 6/7 months I weaned myself off it, and went cold turkey with no strapping. This lasted a glorious couple of months, then some pain came back, not really sure what caused it, thumb or ulna side, so went back to some general strapping. A year on from buying it, I am back wearing it again, but again it is really just for security. Having had 20 years of RSI issues, it kinda feels weird not having strapping on, so I'd rather wear a small inconspicuous thing like this and feel happy. I can report it is still going strong, not too tatty, velcro still holding. Wear it 24/7 EXCEPT in the shower - I am now braving turning the knob very carefully! So although £20 something sounds a lot, I have had my money's worth I think!

Absolutely brilliant! Game changing at reducing pain & increasing mobility

It does work to some extent but not sure about longevity. My main complaint is the cost - it looks as though it would cost very little to make and £5 would be more reasonable for what it is.

Very good item, it works as expected will recommend this

The brace itself does the job. It looks simple but it helps a lot on RFCC

Truly works!! Have been dealing with pain in the ulnar region (just below the pinky where the palm meets the wrist) for over a year. And wore this and felt immense relief almost immediately. If you’re facing same problem would highly recommend.

These were recommended by my osteopath and they are amazing! I have been wearing them for a while and really notice when I forget to put it on. Highly recommend 👌🏻
