Description
The Wrist Brace with Thumb is a specially designed orthopedic support device intended to provide targeted stabilization to both the wrist and thumb joints. This dual-function brace is commonly used in the treatment of wrist sprains, thumb arthritis, De Quervain’s tenosynovitis, carpal tunnel syndrome, and post-injury or post-surgical recovery. By limiting movement at the wrist and base of the thumb, the brace minimizes strain on affected tendons and ligaments, promoting faster healing and preventing further injury.
Crafted from breathable, skin-friendly materials, the brace typically includes a combination of soft padding for comfort and semi-rigid inserts or stays for structural reinforcement. Adjustable straps or hook-and-loop closures ensure a snug, customizable fit while allowing easy removal. The integrated thumb spica section holds the thumb in a neutral, functional position without restricting finger mobility.
