FlA Ortho CarpalMate Professional Carpal Wrist Support Black # 22-1401000

For activities throughout the day, this little CarpalMate Wrist Support is ideal and has helped considerably the CS in both my wrists, but a more restrictive splint is needed at night for sleeping.

As an individual with pretty severe carpal tunnel, I must sleep with wrist braces every night and often wear them for typing and such. After foolishly purchasing not one, but two of these braces and using them for at least a year, I can say that these things are really pieces of $%&#*. The part that is supposed to stabilize the wrist is made of plastic and can allow your wrist to take on the same positions that caused the damage in the first place, especially after a couple of moths of use. Worst of all, after a while the "velcro" on the straps simply will not stick-no matter what you do, the straps will come loose. If the wrist brace is not tight, it cannot stabliize. If the straps will not stick, then the brace cannot be tight. In short, if you plan on getting some use out of a wrist brace, I would go for something made with metal instead of plastic and that uses REAL velcro that won't wear out. Ace makes some pretty decent drugstore braces, but if you want a really good heavy duty brace that will last, ask your doctor or your pharmacist.

McDavid Carpal Tunnel Wrist Support (Right, One Size)
$18.99
...the only reason I'm giving it 2 stars is because only after just a couple months of use, the velcro area has worn down to the point that it makes the brace almost useless.

I have to keep moving the strap to a newer area of velcro to try and keep it from sliding off.

Imak Products Computer Glove with ergoBeads # 20128

This glove is GREAT! I also use it with the Kensington Comfort Type Notebook Rest - Notebook wrist rest - black for my laptop/notebook and it works great together or separately. It really PROTECTS your wrists from harm, ie the EDGES of computer notebooks. I'm sure it would be fantastic for regular computer work as well.

I had injured my right hand from computer usage and I have carpal tunnel already. So I am very very grateful for this product!

I bought 2. One is inside out and works just as well as the other one.

To wash: I just put them in the top shelf of the dishwasher and then take them out to dry. They haven't shrunk or anything. This is a GREAT product and I highly recommend it!.
