Comfort Cool Thumb CMC Restriction Splint, Provides Direct Support For The Thumb CMC Joint While Allowing Full Finger Function, Left Hand, Large Plus

Comfortable to wear, can still do tasks and yet minimizes movement enough to alleviate pain. I bought 1 for each hand

I was a little hesitant to buy this because of the price, it's fairly expensive considering the other thumb protector I also bought on Amazon that was only $10 (Reversible Thumb & Wrist Stabilizer - which is also very good BTW.) That said, this one is clearly higher end, very good quality soft neoprene like material, soft and gentle feeling. Better thumb support. Surprisingly, as much as it wraps around your thumb it's not bulky and is very comfortable. It leaves more of the palm exposed than any other of the 4-5 thumb holders I have. I have thumb arthritis -the joint at the base of my thumb can be painful, it swells, it gets red, sometimes difficult to do simple tasks like opening jars, etc. and this is great. It' can't solve my problem but it sure makes me forget about it. It may look slightly bulky and does have an extra strap that comes from the wrist, goes around the thumb and Velcro's back at the wrist BUT that slight "extra" strap is slim & adds just a teeny bit of extra bulk really isn't noticed and doesn't hinder movement in anyway - the material is so soft, you don't notice, it just gives more protection and support which is great. Highly recommend overall! I do agree with the questions of some other reviewers about the fact that it tells you to measure the palm of your hand at the knuckles and yet, there is nothing around your knuckles. It wraps at the wrist. So yeah, odd that they have you measure the knuckle width as opposed to the wrist however it fit me perfect! On that note, the width of my palm came out to 7 ¼" so I ordered the 7-8" medium - I probably could have ordered the 7 ¼" - 8 ¼" medium as well. FYI my particular wrist is fairly tiny, just 6" so if I had a bigger wrist then maybe you'd want to order a size upI f you're in-between sizes or close, I'd go the size up.

This brace is just wonderful. Since the moment I put it on I have no CMC thumb pain.

I think ordinarily this would be a great product, it just so happens not to work for me personally because of sizing. I can tell it would be the best mix of support and function that I've ever seen in a hand splint…and believe me, I've tried a lot of them. If I could get the size right, I think this splint would provide good support for my CMC joint, while still allowing me to use my hand while at work. The problem is that I've tried both the medium and medium plus sizes, and neither works. The medium was the right size for the base of my thumb, but too tight on the rest of my hand. The medium plus was a better size for the part that wraps around my hand, but too big for the base of my thumb. That's disappointing, because I think I'd love this thing if I could get it to fit properly. In short, I do recommend it, but you may have to play with sizing to get it right.

Very supportive and comfortable with easy adjustability.

Replacement. Original wore out.

My OT recommended this brace and she only had a brace for the opposite hand that I could try on. It felt very supportive. I used the measurement guide to order and I was right on the upper measure of a medium and the lower measurement for a large for my left hand. The medium was too small and tight, so I returned it. I ordered the large. It fit around my hand, but was way too big around my thumb. I tried to contact the seller for advice on what to do...since, buyer beware, this item says it is non-returnable. I will certainly pay more attention from now on about returns!

Originally, I went by the instructions to measure across the knuckle for the brace. I ordered a Small/Med & it was too small. It cut the circulation off in my thumb. I sent this back and ordered a Medium, which fits perfectly. The strap that fits around the thumb adds a great deal of stability and there is no hard metal in the brace. I personally like this because it's soft yet stable. I wear it only at night right now because I recently had a cortisone shot, which alleviates the pain totally, for 3-4 months. My doctor and I talked about surgery, which would be a permanent fix, however, the down time would be significant - 4 weeks of complete disuse of left hand, (I'm left handed). Plus 4 more weeks of very little use. Complete healing would take a total of 1 year. I was all for it in the office, however, have reconsidered since I've read all about the surgery and down-time involved. I think the brace will help with delaying the cortisone injections.

It can be abrasive were the Velcro’s overlapping edges!! The material is soft and comfortable

Very happy, it's light fits great and provides the perfect support for my thumb. I'm trying to find the same one, but for the left hand, but I can't find one, so I had to contact the seller??

I bought one splint 4 months ago but the the sticky joint is no longer sticky any more. The strap comes off easily all the time. The splint is no longer working. Does the product have any warranty? I cannot find warranty info anywhere. If not, could you send me a free replacement since I got this one only 4-5 months ago? I am aware you are just a distributor, not the manufacturer. But the philosophy is that if I buy a product that has defects from Walmart, I go to Walmart for change or refund; I do not have to contact the manufacturer in this regard.

Esto es exactamente lo que mi esposa necesitaba. Funciona perfectamente y proporciona soporte pulgar completo. También puede ser utilizado para cualquiera de las dos manos aunque dice para la mano derecha en el nombre del producto. Dice: "¡No podría ser más feliz!"

Great size. Works great!
