Dr. Clarke's Original Wishbone Finger Splints - Size 3, 4, 5 - 3 Pack - Finger Splint, Thumb Splint, Trigger Finger Splint For Thumb, Middle, Pinky or Ring Finger - Finger Hand Brace for Arthritis,

If you experience finger or thumb joint problems. These small natural colored plastic supports are the best, & quite reasonably priced.

I sprained my thumb doing a backbend like I used to do when I was 12... but it's been a minute. I'm 52. Enough said. Well, after suffering with homemade splints for a couple weeks, I broke down and purchased some immobilizing types to really protect it (and keep me from being an overachiever and re-injuring). The thumb was healing well and yet there was no way to take a shower, do dishes, etc, with ease because of the cloth or foam on other braces/splints getting wet... and then I found this! It has been a game-changer for the last leg of my healing journey. I, like others, used a larger to fit over a smaller one for extra support to start, and then "graduated" down to one. I like that it has three different sizes to adjust to the changes in swelling of my thumb. I even turned it slightly sideways to allow for typing or using a pen while still keeping my thumb from bending. It also worked both on or below my knuckle, so if it did get in the way or rub funny when wearing two, I could easily shift them around and were still effective. I found them comfortable enough although the sore thumb isn't truly comfy until totally healed. Anyway, very simple but good design and VERY VERSATILE. Sooo glad I purchased.

Best designed splint available. Easy to use, not bulky and doesn't interfere with hand usage and easily fits in a glove. Since all fingers are different, I realize it's hard to design something that fits everyone perfectly. I switch between sizes 4 and 5. Sometimes 4 seems a little too tight, however, size 5 is a little loose and allows the finger tip to bend a little. There is a little of this with size 4 also. If I push the tip of my finger up to the level position, the back of the splint no longer touches my finger. Using a small wedge to fill in the gap would help to keep the finger really straight. A little pad of cotton works for a while but something firm would be better. But still the best design available.

First off, I don’t usually review products – but I was intrigued by the design - and ordered a set of these finger splints – Size 13, 14, 15 - based on the sizing chart. The package I received was marked "13" - but included one each of Size 12, 13, 14 - not 13, 14, 15 – so the packages are off one size.I'm glad the "12" was included - since the 13 and 14 were too big. I like the design - it immobilizes my "trigger thumb" nicely - but it slips off occasionally. I tried wearing the 12 with the band on top - and adding the 13 with the band on the bottom. The two seemed to work nicely together. The 13 was large enough to go over the 12 - but after a while my thumb would swell and they got tight.I know the sizing of these things is tricky – so when I mentioned to the seller (Alan) that I planned to order a pack with an 11 - to have a variety of sizes to use depending on the swelling of my thumb – he said that the factory sizes actually run 1 size down due to a misunderstanding that they are trying to clear up – and offered to send me a 10, 11, 12 set at no additional cost.The second order I received - Size 10, 11, 12 - was actually Size 9, 10, 11. I thought the 11 would fit - but the 10 fits much better. I also thought that it would be nice to be able to order a pack of three Size 10 - in case I lose the one that fits – but the 10 gets tight sometimes – and having multiple sizes handy lets me switch to a more comfortable one throughout the day.Would I recommend these? – YES!!They DO stand behind their sizing guarantee!!

Returned. It seems like a nice idea, but would not stay on.

I've been suffering from trigger thumb for a couple of weeks now, and I saw a product similar to this recommended on YouTube. I used a sewing tape to measure my thumb (not easy one-handed), looked like I needed a 10, so I ordered the 9, 10, 11 set. The nice thing about these is that they can be tighter or looser depending on which end of the splint you put your thumb in first. This is helpful, because I've discovered that my thumb swells and shrinks during the day (and night) depending on what I'm doing. I have used both the 10 AND the 9 a number of times, so I keep both on hand. It seems to help a lot; when I remove the splint, my trigger is gone for awhile. But it's only gone for awhile, so be sure to splint as much as possible.There will be times when you just can't use your hand with the splint on. The smooth plastic interferes with gripping stuff with my thumb tip, or squeezing my fitness watch to start a timer, or even handling two dog leashes at the same time. However, having the splint is a lot better than having the triggering pain. I wear mine at night, too, so I make sure it feels comfortable before I go to bed.This was a good, and reasonably-priced purchase. The set comes in a small zip-close plastic bag, and if I lost it, I'd buy another immediately. If you need more trigger digit advice, check out Virtual Hand Care on YT.
