Dr. Clarke's Original Wishbone Finger Splints - Size 3, 4, 5 - 3 Pack - Finger Splint, Thumb Splint, Trigger Finger Splint For Thumb, Middle, Pinky or Ring Finger - Finger Hand Brace for Arthritis,

I sprained my thumb doing a backbend like I used to do when I was 12... but it's been a minute. I'm 52. Enough said. Well, after suffering with homemade splints for a couple weeks, I broke down and purchased some immobilizing types to really protect it (and keep me from being an overachiever and re-injuring). The thumb was healing well and yet there was no way to take a shower, do dishes, etc, with ease because of the cloth or foam on other braces/splints getting wet... and then I found this! It has been a game-changer for the last leg of my healing journey. I, like others, used a larger to fit over a smaller one for extra support to start, and then "graduated" down to one. I like that it has three different sizes to adjust to the changes in swelling of my thumb. I even turned it slightly sideways to allow for typing or using a pen while still keeping my thumb from bending. It also worked both on or below my knuckle, so if it did get in the way or rub funny when wearing two, I could easily shift them around and were still effective. I found them comfortable enough although the sore thumb isn't truly comfy until totally healed. Anyway, very simple but good design and VERY VERSATILE. Sooo glad I purchased.

Got exactly what I ordered quick, appreciate that! These splints are truly remarkable and have helped me in managing my finger injuries.These splints are incredibly comfortable to wear. They feel soft against the skin, and are designed to fit snugly around the finger without causing any discomfort or irritation. Also, they're lightweight and discreet, making them easy to wear throughout the day.What I appreciate most about these splints is their effectiveness in supporting my fingers. They provide excellent stability and protection, which has helped me to avoid further injury while my fingers heal. The unique "wishbone" design of the splints ensures that they are both sturdy and flexible, allowing me to move my fingers without compromising their support.Overall, I highly recommend these to anyone in need of finger support. They are comfortable, effective, and easy to use, making them an excellent choice for anyone looking to manage finger injuries or prevent further damage.

I gave these finger splints a four star rating because mine slips and slides when it gets wet, whether I'm washing my hands or from sweating. I'm not sure how people swim with them! I would lose mine for sure! And if I leave it on too long, my finger turns a little white under the plastic. Other than that, the splint is comfortable, and as long as it stays dry, it stays right in place. I had injured my finger badly, and after being in a big splint for three months, I wanted something small and less intrusive. I wanted to continue to support my finger, and this little guy is doing the job! I appreciated the sizing guide and the return policy, so I could get the right size. All in all, it's a good product!

First off, I don’t usually review products – but I was intrigued by the design - and ordered a set of these finger splints – Size 13, 14, 15 - based on the sizing chart. The package I received was marked "13" - but included one each of Size 12, 13, 14 - not 13, 14, 15 – so the packages are off one size.I'm glad the "12" was included - since the 13 and 14 were too big. I like the design - it immobilizes my "trigger thumb" nicely - but it slips off occasionally. I tried wearing the 12 with the band on top - and adding the 13 with the band on the bottom. The two seemed to work nicely together. The 13 was large enough to go over the 12 - but after a while my thumb would swell and they got tight.I know the sizing of these things is tricky – so when I mentioned to the seller (Alan) that I planned to order a pack with an 11 - to have a variety of sizes to use depending on the swelling of my thumb – he said that the factory sizes actually run 1 size down due to a misunderstanding that they are trying to clear up – and offered to send me a 10, 11, 12 set at no additional cost.The second order I received - Size 10, 11, 12 - was actually Size 9, 10, 11. I thought the 11 would fit - but the 10 fits much better. I also thought that it would be nice to be able to order a pack of three Size 10 - in case I lose the one that fits – but the 10 gets tight sometimes – and having multiple sizes handy lets me switch to a more comfortable one throughout the day.Would I recommend these? – YES!!They DO stand behind their sizing guarantee!!

Returned. It seems like a nice idea, but would not stay on.

This brace is much less intrusive than the aluminum brace I also use for straightening my trigger finger, which was at a 45 degree angle when I started working on it. I sometimes wear it with a bandaid when the top band is cutting in.It’s not enough on its own to force my finger completely straight, but with a looser band I can use it with a popsicle stick (pictured). I also use the popsicle stick with velcro bands, and sometimes an aluminum brace. Each method ends up making my knuckle sore after a while, but this one is comfortable the longest when it’s the right size.I’m also more likely to keep this one on because it’s easy to wear in the shower or doing dishes, and unlike the aluminum one, doesn’t keep turning on my windshield wipers when I’m driving.For anyone else dealing with trigger finger, I find using a massage gun to break up the scar tissue, and exercising the fingers to keep the joint from getting stiff also help with straightening and regaining flexibility. I went from not being able to get it straighter than 45 degrees to being able to hold it straight, even though it doesn’t yet stay straight for long without the brace.
