Ultimate Arm Sling® Average Adult Review

If you have two good hands, this shawl is probably easy to put on. Of course, if you have two good hands, you don't need a sling. However, if you have a torn rotator cuff in one shoulder like I did, it's too painful to adjust without causing even more pain than I started. I need my not always available wife to help me with this, which seems problematic in terms of the overall utility of the sling. It's easy, but I can't be on it alone, so it's basically useless.

Best hand strap. I was crazy about other brands. They were so uncomfortable and I was unhappy for 2 weeks before I bought my Joslin bracelet. I used to buy 2 different ones and they gave me pain in my neck and around my arm from complacency. I think I'd go insane without that armband. The broken arm at the shoulder was bad enough, and the lack of a properly fitting bandage nearly brought me to the brink. Thank God I found this noose. I also bought one as a backup. I was in a bandage on my arm…

I am so glad I bought this strap. I just had a total shoulder replacement. The bandage from the hospital wasn't that comfortable, so based on the good reviews I ordered this one. I'm glad I did! I have to wear a bandage for the next 5 weeks and this will definitely help me cope. The only thing I have to say, and it's not a bad thing, is watch your sizes. I am a woman who wears size 16 and XL tops. Fits me absolutely perfectly. A word of warning to those women and men who are greater than these.

In December I was in an accident and broke my shoulder and completely tore my rotator cuff. I had to postpone the surgery until the end of June and wore different bandages - all the time at the beginning and now and then depending on the symptoms when I go to the surgery. After the operation I have to lie in the bandage for 6 weeks, then with breaks. I was looking for a sling that I feel comfortable in, but with support for the summer. I saw this sling, read the reviews and decided to give it a

I recently fractured my upper arm just below the humeral head and was lucky I didn't need surgery or a cast. Well, I could have a suitcase, but you'd have to wrap it around the other side of my body, you get the point. This type of fracture is essentially a shoulder fracture and is very painful. The humerus is a large bone and with a fracture this high, mobility in the shoulder is compromised and any movement is painful at first. I bought this bandage because the cheap one they sent me home was

Conclusion: I would buy it again despite the minor blemishes. My injury was a broken left collarbone which is not a dominant side. I wore this sling almost 24/7 for about 4 weeks, after 1 week of wearing Instacare provided a sling + bandage (please note I did not purchase the Joslin bandage). Bad: - Shoulder strap could be wider. Shouldn't be much larger, like 1/2 inch wider. This helps distribute the weight of the arm in the sling. And also be wider than the velcro so there is less chance of…

I broke my left distal collarbone in a car accident a little over a month ago. As a result, I've had to wear the bandage 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, even while sleeping, for a month now, and I'll probably have to wear it for a few more weeks. At the hospital they gave me a cheap blue bandage and said I'd probably want to buy something nicer. A cheap little strap that immediately drove my right shoulder crazy so I bought an Ace branded sling from the pharmacy to try and find something better.
