It fit

I use this for trigger finger and it's perfect for me, but I don't use it the way it's supposed to be used. What I really need is a solution that keeps me from completely straightening the finger (which makes the tendonitis hurt) or completely bending the finger (gets locked that way) AND that lets me work with my hands during the day. Amazon used to sell an unusual articulated finger brace advertised for sports that does exactly what I want, but it's held on with two rubber straps that deteriorate and fall apart. (It was white plastic with vents in it so you could still hold a bat or dribble/catch a ball, and last time I check you couldn't even find it on eBay.)Anyway, this works for me because I wear it "backwards" -- instead of putting the opening at the top (as illustrated) so the middle joint can't move, I put the open part on the bottom. I can straighten and bend the finger enough to type, grab things off shelves and even do some handwork like beading but I can't fully extend or fully bend the finger. It's perfect. In fact, I came to this page today to order another because I seem to have left this in a public bathroom.It's very well made and you can adjust the width as needed. As noted, I'm not using it the way you're "supposed" to but it definitely does immobilize the joint when used as directed and it definitely limits the range of motion in a therapeutic way if you use it backwards.

These broke after the first use………..not so good.

I got my finger caught and tore the ligaments in the distal joint. My doctor said it needed to be stabilized and gave me a tongue depressor and tape...*sigh*. i didn't want the giant aluminum thing from the local pharmacies because I work so heavily with my hands, so this thing to the rescue! It is low profile and though it does need minor adjustments occasionally it does stay really well put and I can fit a rubber glove over it. I have had to wash it several times but don't wear it again until it's dry. Like other users have said the neoprene does move around a little, but over about 1.5 weeks (photo is from today and you can see the neoprene sitting up a bit higher then when new) it is still comfortable and functional. It provides excellent stabilization of the distal joint and moderate+ stabilization of the middle joint of my flipper finger @ size medium - see photo of bent v straight to see allowable range of motion with snug fit. I may have to order a second one to get me through the rest of recovery if the neoprene moves anymore, but this is something that is not intended to last forever. Well worth every penny.
