ProCare 79-87480 Quick-Fit WTO Wrist/Thumb Support Splint, Right, Universal

Literally the only bad thing I would say about this brace is that I don’t have a great range of motion but that’s kind of the part of the brace. This is absolutely amazing. I’ve been looking for this brace everywhere. This is identical to the brace that the orthopedic doctor prescribed me. Extremely supportive and much larger than I can find anything else so it fits snug but not too snug. I lost it in a move and was very disappointed because it’s the best support for bone damage that I have in my right wrist. The one from the ortho cost $50 and I didn’t want to spend that again so this is a great value for the money. So thankful for this brace! Highly recommend 10/10

As to whether this item helped me: 1) I had a LOT of fairly severe pain in my hand, particularly in the thumb & wrist. I couldn't do anything with my hand that required use of the thumb to support/balance/grasp. 2) Official X-ray diagnosis: Degenerative changes of the triscaphe joint (scaphotrapeziotrapezoid) and first carpometacarpal joint -- basically, the joints in the wrist at the base of the thumb) 3) after trying various drugstore hand/wrist/thumb splints before seeing the doctor, the splint that the ortho gave me made the biggest difference: it didn't make the problem go away, but when I wore the splint most of the day, I would have some pain now and then when I used my hand a certain way, but it didn't linger most of the day like it did before using the splint. Believe me, that's a huge improvement! I do wear it most of the day except for when I'm washing dishes or doing something where it just gets in the way ... and I must say, my pain level is reduced significantly. It does cause just a bit of a coordination issue, but in all fairness, it's no worse than being without out the brace where pain/stiffness would cause the same awkwardness. The difference is that by wearing it all day, these moments are much shorter-lived as opposed to when I'm not wearing the splint, one painful episode just merges into the next and the pain just goes on and on all day. THAT SAID ... that was about the splint that the doctor gave me. Since I wore it most of the day/every day, I needed a 2nd one so that I've something to use while I washed/dried the other one. This one on Amazon looked like the same thing. And I am here to confirm that it appears to be EXACTLY the same as what the doctor gave me. Examining/comparing the two (and their associated product literature packets), the ONLY difference I can spot is that the number "DS7410721" is printed on the tag of the one I got from the doctor and the number "DS741022" is printed on the tag of this AMAZON item. Other than that, after careful scurtiny, I see absolutely NO DIFFERENCE.

Very good, just like I got from the ER

Helpful…

if you expect the straps around the thumb to last dont pull on the hard, otherwise the brace is working well

Just like the one my hand doctor wanted me to have but this one is way cheaper and fits comfortable

I bought this for support when my tendinitis flares up, and it works well for keeping my movement limited, and giving my wrist a chance to rest. This design is easy to adjust, and also easy to put on unassisted. I recommend this one for anyone who needs a wrist brace.

Good thumb and wrist brace.

I've bought and ordered over 50 different braces over the years for bursitis, tendinitis, carpal tunnel and fibromyalgia. This brace works the best I've ever had. It has the perfect amount of stiffness to cause movement restriction in the hand and arm, it snugs tightly, the thumb stabalizer actually fits my thumb and snugs fairly tightly to help my arm, hand and wrist rest after work and through the night. I wake up able to move in the morning and I don't have to wear my day hand brace as often. I will be ordering another to have on hand if something happens to this one. Excellent quality brace and does a fantastic job helping to ease my pain that shoots from my shoulder to my finger tips
