Review on 🀲 Arthritis Tendinitis Support with Breathable Adjustable Design by Justin Albright

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Excellent braces for the price

I enter data for a living but am too young for arthritis so I was very concerned when I developed symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome. Now that the "health care system" is working so well in the US, I can't afford to see a doctor for trivial matters. So after much and much reading I decided to wear these braces when I sleep and when I type. Now I've just started having symptoms like numbness in my hands and sore hands/wrists with daily activities and I know these braces aren't the right fit. a panacea but a way to keep things from getting worse and to try and reverse the symptoms I'm having. They may not work in the long term, but I figured that for the price of braces I could try and save on a doctor's visit. I've been wearing them every night for about a week and I'm already noticing a big difference. I no longer wake up with numb hands and my hands no longer hurt in the morning. The brackets make typing a little harder than usual, but nothing I couldn't manage. I wear them occasionally throughout my workday, I haven't noticed as much of a difference as with daytime use, but there is still some pain relief. I don't use compression sleeves in braces very often and they are a little tight for my liking, but sometimes they feel nice. I definitely don't wear them at night. Suspenders are still very easy to wear by slipping your hand under the sleeve inside the suspender so it can be worn any way you like. In addition, the Velcro fasteners are very long. Which is probably fine for someone with thicker wrists, but it's giving me a huge headache, so I cut them off.

Pros
  • Medical supplies and equipment
Cons
  • I will write later
