Comfort Cool Thumb CMC Restriction Splint. Beige Patented Thumb Brace Provides Support/Compression. Indications - Arthritis, Tendinitis, Dislocations, Sprains, Repetitive Use. Left Medium

I could still lift weights with this thumb splint. It is flexible! It helped with the pain and to keep my thumb from moving around too much- no hard splint in the brace which is what I wanted.

They don’t last forever, but they are helpful. I wish they came in other colours, skin tones, so they were less obvious.

The brace is comfortable and fits well. I’m a bit concerned that the area above the thumb seems a bit frayed. I hope it doesn’t unravel.

I was recently diagnosed with osteoarthritis in the lower thumb joint and wrist. This is the splint recommended by my doctor and hand therapist. It reduces my pain by more than half, and makes it possible to function again, especially when open jars, chopping food, etc. This is my second purchase. When I started wearing my first splint all the time, I wanted a second one to wear when I'm washing the first. I first purchased a large, based on my measurement. It is plenty big, and the therapist suggested I could get by with a medium. But the medium is really too skimpy. I wish there was a size in-between medium and large, but there isn't. So I should have stuck with the large the second time, too!

This brace helps limit motion (though it doesn't stop it altogether) which keeps my arthritic base of thumb from getting angry. It provides some support but not a lot. It goes through the wash well. It's kind of a weird color, and is greener than my skin.

I bought this on the advice of my hand surgeon to help minimize arthritic pain in the CMC joint of my left hand (the joint at the very base of the last bone of the thumb).My doctor explained that by minimizing thumb mobility it would help to minimize motion within the joint and, thus, help minimize pain as a result.I have strong hands with large palm muscles - which is not good when it comes to using this device which partially relies on elastic compression to help minimize/stabilize the thumb.The fact that the CMC joint is right below the palm muscle (the thick muscle on the underside of the hand at the base of the thumb which in my case is fairly large) and because this item relies partly on compression to stabilize that joint mean that the use of this caused added pain for me: Imagine putting compression on a substantial muscle under which a sore and painful joint is located.And for the record I measured my hand several times very carefully (as directed) to ensure I was buying the right size brace for my hand. According to the sizing instructions, my hand required a 'medium'. Perhaps a large would've been a better choice but then again if it is too loose it won't work as intended. I also tried to ensure that I wasn't overly tightening it when i put it on - but all to no avail...no matter what I did, this brace wound up causing added pain for me - not what I'd hoped for that's for sure.Another factor to take into consideration is that perhaps the degeneration of cartilage in my CMC joint has become too acute for a compression-style brace which is what I suspect to be the case with me. And if I'm correct in my own self-assessment (and I'm certain I am) then I feel my hand surgeon should have thought through a bit more carefully before recommending this brace (for the record, I'm no longer seeing that doctor).Furthermore, a rigid, custom-made, half-hand plastic brace that mu occupational therapist made for me is what wound up working for me was the very thing that doctor said I wouldn't 'like' because some of his other patients found it to be "too restrictive" yet I found that not only was that plastic brace far more comfortable, more importantly it was far more effective at minimizing my pain since it was more effective at stabilizing my thumb/CMC joint because it relies on rigidity and not compression to perform its intended function.I admit that although this item may have worked well for others, unfortunately in my situation and with my medical circumstances it didn't work for me.

Have been using this brace for a week after being diagnosed with CMC arthritis in the wrist and trigger thumb, needed something a little more customized than the wrist brace I had been using. Really like that it’s easy to put on, and that it is comfortable to wear for hours. Only concern is that the Velcro attachments seem to be a little weak, but so far it is holding together. Haven’t washed it yet as I was waiting on another one to arrive (the braceUP®️ thumb stabilizer) but think it should hold up well to hand washing in Woolite.

Not only is it well constructed, but it immediately relieves pain to the CMC joint (thumb) when in use.

Que l’article est arrivé avant la date prévue lors de mon achat en ligne. En plus il était ‘back order’ partout ailleurs.

I bought one splint 4 months ago but the the sticky joint is no longer sticky any more. The strap comes off easily all the time. The splint is no longer working. Does the product have any warranty? I cannot find warranty info anywhere. If not, could you send me a free replacement since I got this one only 4-5 months ago? I am aware you are just a distributor, not the manufacturer. But the philosophy is that if I buy a product that has defects from Walmart, I go to Walmart for change or refund; I do not have to contact the manufacturer in this regard.

Very happy, it's light fits great and provides the perfect support for my thumb. I'm trying to find the same one, but for the left hand, but I can't find one, so I had to contact the seller??

Le matériel de l'attache du pouce se défait déjà après deux mois d'utilisation sporadique

My sister had bought these from the hospital as that is what they recommended and so glad I found them on amazon. I'm glad I could try hers on first so I knew correct size as they are really work!!!
