EZ Finger Splint Trio 3 Pack (2,3,4)

This device works very well. I work in healthcare and am constantly washing my hands. I do not have to worry about getting this device wet. The aluminum/blue foam device gets wet and causes wet skin breakdown when worn for long periods of time. The only complaint that I have about this device is that it rides right across the site of my injury (see photos). That often results in slight swelling and more pain. Also, I felt that the device needed adjustment to better straighten my finger. So I tried several methods to heat the plastic and bend it into a better shape. I even tried boiling it. No luck. The shape seemed to stay the same. Also, I measured my finder as instructed, and ordered a device. It was too small and I had to order a much large device. Not sure if I did the measuring correctly. So pay attention when sizing.

Funcionaron muy bien

I have self diagnosed ;) trigger finger in my thumb. It was extremely painful anytime I bent my thumb and it was waking me up several times a night. I started by using a bulky thumb brace and graduated to just bandaging my thumb before I found this item. The BraceOn EZ finger splint provided relief as soon as I put it on and was extremely easy to use. I was able to continue going about my day with very little discomfort in my thumb. I wore it 24/7 for the first 5 weeks after I received it. About a week ago I started taking it off of my thumb for a few minutes at a time throughout the day until I felt like I needed to put it back on. Yesterday and today I’ve been able to leave it off most of the day with minimal pain in my thumb. My thumb is not 100% yet and I’m still careful with movements that require using it to tighten things, but it is significantly better. I plan on wearing for as long as I need to because it is just no big deal. PROS: Its very comfortable, I forget that I am wearing it most of the time. Unlike bandages or splints you can leave it on all of the time without worrying about it getting wet or dirty. You can easily change its position on your finger simply by turning it. It does was a bulky brace or splint does but is much more comfortable and far less obtrusive. It successfully immobilized my thumb joint so that my ‘trigger finger’ had time to heal. CONS: The cost is a con if you are thinking about it in terms of what you get. But if you think of it in terms of what it does, it’s probably worth even more money. TIP: If you decide to take it off of your hurt finger for awhile just slide it onto another finger, like a ring (I use my middle finger). That way you won’t misplace it, it’s barely noticeable and it will be readily available if you want to slide it back on to your hurt finger.

I have a trigger in my left ring finger. I was splinting it with a cut down Emory board and bandaids. That worked pretty well but it fell apart when it got wet and got frayed and dirty pretty quickly so it was getting messy and expensive. I learned there were plastic braces that worked well so I did some research and found these. They’re working really well and I’m generally happy with them. They’re soft plastic in the color of bandaids, like the old racist “flesh-colored” bandaids. They’re flexible enough to be comfortable on the finger, they protect the finger and I can still wear my rings. They come in a package with some of other sizes. They fit well, ease the pain in the finger and keep it from locking down. But once I found the right size the question moved to what to do with the other sizes and if I want a spare I’ll be left with a supply of unneeded others in different sizes. They weren’t all that expensive—about $14 for a pack of 3 assorted sizes. But I can’t use the ones that don’t fit (I don’t know anybody around here with a trigger finger, so I’m left with buying another 3-pack to get another one that fits and storing the unusable ones or throw them out). That’s not a life-ending problem, and I hope I’ll be able to buy only the size that fits some time soon. The best thing is they work—no more pain or locking down of the finger and I can go about my day pretty much as if that trigger finger didn’t exist. I recommend them.

This is the style and brand that I wanted, but the fact that you have to buy 3 at a time for a significant price and hope that you measured correctly to get at least one of the right size is very frustrating and I hesitated to order them for quite a while. As it turned out, the smallest one in the set does fit almost correctly, but I probably could have used the next smallest size. To get one it appears that I have to order another set of three that includes it, and I do not plan to do that any time soon. That said, the style is the best available for finger issues such as mine.
