BraceAbility Wrist and Thumb Spica Splint - De Quervain's Tenosynovitis Long Forearm Cast Stabilizer for Tendonitis, Sprains, Thumb Brace for Arthritis Pain and Support - (L Right Hand)

It really serves it's purpose.

The brace keeps my thumb from not going where it shouldn’t go and cause pain. The only thing I wish was offering is that the thumb stuck out up to the knuckle so I could do more.

I like it and wear it all the time.

I had a wrist and forearm brace which was helpful but it ended up in transferring the problem to my thumb. My purchase of the BraceAbility is recent so my opinion is limited. I noticed immediate pain relief from the BraceAbility brace. A plus is that the Velcro fasteners are well made(almost too well It seems when trying to undue them). The others I have tried tend to stretch and lose grip function. How well only time will tell. I have two concerns. The first is that the thumb portion is clumsy but it works. The second concern is the straps to tighten the wrist and forearm. They are what I consider too long. This adds to the sense that the brace, overall, is clumsy because it leaves long tails. Again this not take away from the function but it does take away from the overall satisfaction with the brace. However, all that is minor compared to the pain relief it provides. My pain levels were crippling and with the brace the level is greatly reduced. My problem will resolve within a matter of weeks so that the concerns I have are short lived.

My husband was informed he has DeQuerveins so I got him this splint to stabilize his wrist and thumb. It worked so well. He wore it until the thing started falling apart. That being said, he is a roofer and does service work and wore it nonstop to be able to work. This brace has been through A LOT and stood up to the test. Time to order a new one. Lol
