S-Left : BraceAbility Thumb & Wrist Tendonitis Splint | Immobilizes Thumb Joint to Treat De Quervain's Tenosynovitis Tendon Pain, Swelling & Inflammatory Arthritis (S - Left Hand)

It supports my left thumb and wrist but the fabric tore after 2 months. I had another one but that one had lasted longer..

This brace is just what the doctor ordered! But I have two problems that cause me to reduce the star rating I gave it. One is that I cannot adjust the straps properly. Due to the way they are made, I either have to pull them too tight or leave them too loose. Someone with larger or smaller wrists/arms would not have this issue. The other problem is that the stitching around the thumb piece presses my skin when I have the brace on tightly, leaving an indentation that takes a while to go away. That said, the brace is protective and helps to stabilize the joints when I am busy or sleeping.

I hurt my wrist and needed some support and came across this one on Amazon that looked like a good quality brace. I read the sizing guide and followed it. I have average to large hands, but based on my wrist size, I ordered a small and it fits very well. If you order it too large, the straps won't be able to fasten well, which is one of the complaints I read in the lower scoring reviews. The straps have Velcro that folds over onto itself. If the brace is too large, the straps will not work correctly. There are Velco strips sewn into the brace, but the straps are the same material on the ends, so they won't stick there. I think the design could be made better in that respect, but getting the right size will go a long way in making the brace comfortable and useful. I can't comment on durability since I just received it. I work at a computer, so it will get minimal abuse, but it does feel well made and durable.

Almost did not purchase this because of so many negative comments about the straps. Yes, they are long, but I just trimmed them (made a rounded edge instead of straight across) with scissors as suggested in the instructions and now the fit is ideal.I have purchased three different types of wrist/thumb braces over the past eight weeks and this one is by far the best! It’s a bit cumbersome for daytime use, but it is the ONLY one that keeps me out of pain!Highly recommend!!

Having fit people with splints as part of my career, I was very pleased with the quality of this Thumb Spica splint. The stays can be removed to be adjusted. Supports the thumb and wrist well. Very good option for DeQuervain's stenosiing tenosynovitis and other conditions of the wrist and thumb.
