Velpeau Thumb Wrist Support Brace, CMC Thumb Spica Splint for Arthritis Pain, De Quervains Tenosynovitis, Trigger Thumb, Tendonitis, Sprain, Fits Both Left or Right Hands (Plastic Insert Version, M)

I got this after being diagnosed with De Quervains recently due to pregnancy.I had gotten a different brand that works well when I sleep and when I was wearing the other brand during the day, my hands were sweaty and it felt too bulky.I saw this and wanted to get it since the palm is exposed and my hand wouldn’t sweat so much. I work from home and use my hands to type so this has been great at still allowing my other fingers move.This really focuses on your thumb and nothing else! It feels great while I’m typing. It’s comfortable and made of really great quality.If you suffer from “Mommy’s thumb” or just have a thumb injury that is affecting your daily life, I highly suggest getting this so you can feel like yourself again!

I've been going between the aircast wrist brace with thumb splint and a small/basic (futuro brand), comfortable but flexible brace I bought at the store. The aircast is amazingly comfortable but very restrictive, and when the splint gets pressed at certain angles it hurts the injured joint. It's best for overnight use to help relax more muscles in my wrist and forearm.This splint is amazing in that it wraps all the way around the joint. I've tested out putting pressure on various points and so far no pain. I can actually use it almost like a normal thumb, I can use the rest of my fingers and hand like normal, and can even text with both hands if I hold my phone at the right angle!For reference, I have chronic re-injury issues with this thumb from a previous dislocation and accidental re-located at the wrong angle. The most recent injury has left my thumb with no feeling whatsoever but I'm confident this will help reduce the inflammation better that the the other braces with everyday use.The metal plate is easy enough to bend around your thumb but I might try heating it to mold to an even better fit.

Good support for my wrist and thumb. Does relief joint pain! The only downside is breathing. My hand sweats a lot and this material doesn’t do so well with it and my hand gets sweaty. The Velcro is good, attaches well.

I needed a support to heal MCP on my hands and tried a few support braces and found this one to be the best. It is comfortable and fits well (7" wrist and ordered large). After a few days it has help to lessen the pain on both hands. I would deduct a half a star if I could since the velco strap for the thumb is too short and does not fasten well. A minor inconvenience. Good quality product.

The reason I gave this three stars is because you cannot remove the metal brace inside or lease I couldn’t- I wanted to remove it so I could wash the guard. I am using this to stabilize, may trigger finger, which hurts quite a bit, I use this on my left hand, one thing I do not like is, the Velcro goes from left to right, and my thumb is slightly turned because of my trigger finger. I wish I could tighten the wrist guard.- handguard, whatever the other way to help straighten my finger out a little bit. It definitely helps stabilize my thumb. Was kind of funny while traveling. When people saw me wearing it they were more helpful with carrying my bags! I’ll have to remember that next time I travel so I don’t have to carry my bags so much lol

I have an arthritic thumb that's become more painful since fracturing my wrist 2 months ago. I went from the doctor's hard, molded spica splint to an OTC simpler one, then a shorter one that covered most of my hand, and now this that covers only my thumb and wrist, which is exactly what I wanted. It supports both areas I'm afraid of reinjuring, and I'm virtually pain free. It's possible the cheaper ones are just as good, but a lot of reviews of them mention fabric deterioration. I think this one is made better. The velcro on this holds without being so strong that it rips or frays the fabric. I think it will outlast the cheaper ones.

This is one of the most comfortable braces that I’ve worn. Very good quality and it’s soft material. Would definitely recommend this.

Due to assorted injuries, my thumbs are wonky, misshapen, and often painful. After trying several thumb splints/braces, this is the only one that actually relieves pain and does not cause more! The aluminum version is perfect for me, as it can be molded to my crooked digits, which is a real deal-breaker without that feature. I like the way it it leaves such a large portion of my palm open, allowing my fingers to move freely. It doesn't pinch or rub the skin between my thumb and forefinger, which so many of the others did. I feel it is as comfortable as a brace or splint can be, yet provides plenty of support. I highly recommend trying this one!
