MUELLER Sports Medicine Green Fitted Wrist Brace for Men and Women, Wrist Pain Relief Support, Ideal for Carpal Tunnel, Tendonitis, Arthritis, Black

My boyfriend and I both have occasional wrist issues, so I have been buying a whole range of wrist support devices. Of everything I have tried, these are our favorites. They are in fact so much our favorite that my boyfriend stole mine and I had to buy two more, bringing me to a total of four of these things.They give good range of motion and good stability. The comfort level is about what you make of it. Any wrist brace will get uncomfortable after a few hours. These have the hard plate in them that give them extra durability, but it can also make them feel uncomfortable a little bit faster than ones that don't have them. Overall, the velcro straps are the best part to me. Sometimes when I've been wearing the brace a few hours and start to get uncomfortable, I will either loosen or completely undo the velcro straps. This takes some of the pressure off my skin without completely losing the stability of the brace, and after a few minutes to an hour, I'll redo the velcro once I'm feeling better.Some people complained about a smell. This product, as well as most products made of similar material, come with a smell that dissipates after a day or two. It's not even a terrible smell; it's just the standard plastic-y smell you get from things like backpack inserts, joint braces, keyboard cushions, etc. It is not abnormal, it's not a reason to avoid buying it, and it's not a reason to return it. Unless someone is EXTREMELY sensitive to smell, no one should have any problems with this.The worst part of the brace is the thumb hole. It's a bit tight. It was tight on me, and I have very small hands and thin fingers. When I purchased the second set of braces, I asked my boyfriend if I should get the larger size, since his hands and fingers are quite a bit bigger than mine, but he said the small size fits him fine. While the thumb hole is tight, it loosens up over time, and he said he really didn't mind it. (Fortunately for me, the thumb hole is now stretched out enough from him wearing it that it no longer bothers me, lol)Most important of all, it DOES help our wrists feel better. They are best used for preventing wrist pain by forcing you to keep your wrists straight and develop healthy wrist habits, which cuts down on your chances of developing wrist problems. I don't wear them daily or even monthly. When I start feeling wrist pain, I will wear them for a week or two. If I start feeling better by day 3, for example, I'll still wear them for a few more days to teach my body to keep my wrists straight, because if I stop wearing them the second I stop feeling pain, I'm just going to go back to the old bad habits and end up needing the brace again for an even longer period of time. My boyfriend is very prone to this, and I have to remind him every time to wear the brace for like 3 to 5 days longer than you feel pain because it's worth the results. I'll also wear them if I am doing an abnormal task (like maybe lifting a heavy package) that puts a lot of strain on my wrists to minimize the chances of me getting hurt.In conclusion, 9/10, already did buy it again, three times over. The price value is good, it gives a lot of support and stability, and while all braces are uncomfortable, this one makes it pretty bearable. It also really helps the healing process and teaches me good habits to prevent getting hurt in the first place.

I was diagnosed with carpal tunnel and advised to do several things, one of which was getting a wrist support for my right hand. I did a lot of research before making the purchase and decided to try this product. It is exactly what I wanted. Something that did the job, day and night, of supporting my wrist at work (lots of typing) and that I could actually wear easily with an outfit that looked as "unnoticeable" as possible and was not "bulky". I got it in black and have found it is very easy to wear, is no more noticeable than a dark "glove", is easy to take on and off and to wear under jackets, etc... (not bulky. I found it is relatively small compared to other similar products so it is not awkward on the wrist. It is somewhat flexible, but keeps my wrist stable, and the adjustable velcro straps are easy to adjust for comfort so it's not too tight. Your skin can breathe well in it too. It is also very comfortable at night and light weight. I highly recommend this product.I wanted to include some other information for others suffering from a diagnosis of "carpal tunnel", in case it is useful. I was told it was probably both from repetitive finger movements and overuse (typing and drawing), but also was greatly aggravated by carrying a heavy backpack, which affected my right shoulder/lower back, which was all affecting the carpal nerves. I was advised to get a "rolley backpack", which I researched. I purchased one at amazon online (Janson sport 8) and it had made a world of difference. Why didn't I do this years ago?!! So easy. My shoulder and back pain is literally gone after a month of using it. I also switched my chair at work to one that provides support, and follow proper posture procedures (see online) and ordered a low "sliding keyboard" under my desk. keeping my legs uncrossed really helps too). Although initially skeptical, I tried acupuncture with a highly recommended practitioner. 4 treatments later, my carpal pain is about 95% gone. Which of all things worked? Probably a combination, but it is such an incredibly painful condition, I wanted to share all the things I did which have helped. Good luck!

I tried 3 other ones before settling on this brand, and this was the best one by far because:1) metal support is sewn in and secure and doesn’t slide out2) very comfortable for small hands - the thumb hole doesn’t rub your skin sore3) the Velcro straps are good quality and fits the band well so that it doesn’t stick out and get caught on pillowcases, bedding or clothes.4) it’s not too big and cumbersome so it’s comfortable to wear to sleep and it’s breathable so it doesn’t get hot like some other brands5) also very comfortable to wear when awake and typing on computer or doing other tasks and chores

These seem to be quality braces. I purchased both right and left versions. They're not too bulky but using the computer mouse can be a challenge while wearing them. The stability they provide definitely eases my wrist pain. I think they may run a little small so I'm glad I chose the large/x large and they just fit me.

The media could not be loaded. For the price and coming with two, and they’re both universal you can use one gets wore out. We have another one to use on the same one. I mean you tighten it as you want, whatever is comfortable for you.Pain relief:It helps out to hold it still for moving, trying to let it healEase of use:Very easy self-explanatory a caveman configure this out lolComfort:Very comfortable I mean, you’re the one that tightens it and loose it whatever works for youValue for money:I mean you get two of these good for the money and if the one gets wore out, you can use them both on the left hand or the right hand or universal, which makes it niceQuality:So far the Quailty is pretty great. I haven’t had any issues. I was kind of leery about the thumb ripping out, but it’s holding its own.
