Radial Nerve Palsy Splint Brace for Wrist drop 5 Fingers Extension Stroke Patient Recovery Finger Limp Crutch Palsy

This thing worked pretty well. Definitely helps support the wrist properly if you have the old Saturday night palsy/radial nerve palsy. First off, let me say this: YOUR HAND IS GOING TO BE ALRIGHT. If you have radial nerve palsy you know exactly why I start off by saying that haha. It’s scary at first. I slept in my car one night with my arm over the center console and woke up unable to move my wrist… pretty scary. My thumb was numb and I couldn’t pick up any drinks unless I did some kind of claw gesture, which was still tough. Gladly I skipped urgent care and the doctor avoided paying a big bill and I looked it up on TikTok and realized it just takes time. And like I thought, within about a month and a half my hand is basically back to normal. I didn’t do physical therapy. i just kept using it as normally as i could, and you don’t want to “baby” your wrist because you need to re-awaken those nerves - BUT THE BRACE DOES HELP. I used it at night when I was sleeping and whenever I was doing tasks like driving or playing golf because it truly does help keep it at the proper angle instead of letting your wrist slouch, which is important if you’re driving or riding a bicycle so you don’t crash if you need to make a quick maneuver.

Although this does seem like a lot to pay for a brace I do think that the price is pretty reasonable considering how comprehensive this brace is and the support that it provides. First, it is convenient that this is a one-size-fits-all design as that spares me the trouble of having to worry about getting the right size, and I was able to adjust this to fit my hand perfectly. Furthermore, the brace contains a built-in metal bracket that provides good stability and support. I also like that each finger is provided with its own separate ring strap, so I can adjust it on a finger by finger basis. I can tell the material that this is made with is excellent quality, and the brace seems durable enough that it should last through years of use. It is also pretty easy to set up once you get the hang of it, and know how to manage the numerous straps that it comes with. I like that the brace can be used for either left or right hands given the design of the thumb strap. This feels comfortable to wear throughout the day and my hand doesn't get too hot or sweaty when using it. Read more

Overall the splint itself works great, but only on my right hand. The sides of the straps and plastic hooks on one hand should be the same direction when changing into the other hand, but there is not a left or right splint. IE on the right, the plastic hooks for the wrist straps are inside and plastic hook for the hand strap is outside by the pinky finger. The Additional splint I ordered for my left hand being the same, causes discomfort and numbing in the hand and fingers. This is because the plastic hooks for the wrist straps are now on the outside and the plastic hook for the hand strap is now on the inside by my index finger. When the straps are tightened to fit, my left pinky gets crushed most of the time or I'm unable to move it, and my wrist often loses circulation to the hand. Read more
