Medline Wrist and Forearm Splint, Left, Medium

I’ve had one of these braces for years. It still is working, although a little bit tattered. My left hand started to hurt me, and I decided to buy one for my left as well. It is the best brace that I’ve used. I love that. It goes all the way up close to the elbow but doesn’t feel overly bulky or restrictive. It supports your entire forearm and your wrist, which I think works more effectively than just having a wrist-to-palm brace. I always seem to get a very sore forearm when I wear those. But with this, it covers all the way down the forearm to the palm. Everything feels much better and more secure.

Works great

great product, thinking I should have ordered a smaller size as the straps are too long

Very good support for your arm. Very easy to wear and remove. My medium size was a couple inches below the My elbow and I am 6ft tall. People in other reviews complain about the strap length, but this is easy to trim with scissors. Which I believe was the intention.

Great product

It comes up on the arm a little farther than what most of them do which is what we needed at the time

This is much nicer than I was expecting. I've been looking for a longer splint that covered most of my lower arm, and this is perfect. The thumb strap is adjustable, which is nice. It provides great support with a bar along the underside and side splints. Wide velcro straps hold well. It definitely limits motion well. I was confused about the sizing. I think the min-max numbers are as measured right at your wrist. I measured at my wrist and at the widest part of my forearm. I really should have gone with a small, but this works tightened all the way. It doesn't have any padding, so you may want to leave yourself some room to wrap with batting, or a thick sock- especially if you have a fresh injury. Built-in padding would be my only feature request. In the photo, the one on the left is the one from my surgeon (small). This one is on the right (medium). Excuse the dirt.

If you like poorly designed products, this is the item to buy. The design is atrocious. If you’re handicapped, it’s impossible to use don’t buy don’t buy don’t buy.
