Review on Relieve Arthritis And Tendonitis Pain With BraceUP Carpal Tunnel Wrist Brace For Men And Women - Left Hand, Size S/M by Julie Braaten

My doctor recommended I order a brace like this to treat a strain from months ago that was getting worse, not better. I do not have carpal tunnel.I have a relatively small frame, and the small/medium is a perfect fit! Putting the brace on provided immediate relief, and after a week of wearing it, much of the pain is gone. I'm planning to wear it, non-stop, for at least 3 weeks to give the strained parts time to heal.My only negative comment (and the reason for less than a 5 star rating) is about where the seams for the edge binding meet at the base of my thumb. By the end of the 2nd or 3rd day, the slight roughness of the added bulk, right in a spot where there is additional pressure because of the bracing, had begun to really irritate my skin. I put a bandaid on my hand/wrist to cushion the spot that was being irritated, and that has fixed it.
