CURECARE New Upgraded 2 in 1 Thumb Brace, Removable Thumb Spica Splint Left Right Hand with 3 Level Stability, Reversible Thumb Support for CMC, De Quervain’s Tendonitis, Trigger Thumb (S/M, Pink)

This is the second thumb brace I purchased this week. First, I tried the Meuller adjust to fit thumb brace. It did nothing to alleviate the thumb discomfort I was feeling in both the upper and lower thumb joints. The Curecare thumb brace does seem to help, and the plastic splints seem to aid in the slight immobilization of the thumb. You can still use your hand, the brace does not inhibit finger movement, and you can still use your thumb. The design provides comfort without being too bulky, and the size (small) was perfect for my hand. I often use a brace like this, just to keep me forgetting that I have an injury , so that I will not cause more damage by using the injured body part too much. The Curecare thumb brace, is comfortable enough to wear, allowing you to use your hand, while also helping to keep your thumb joints from having too much mobility. I can not attest to the durability yet, as I have only has this a short time, however I can say that the stitching seems fine.

I really, REALLY like this splint. I've recommended it to many with thumb/UCL pain that many get that (usually associated with over-use of the thumb in the same way). I'm a cross stitcher so the "pinch the needle is my issue. At this point I'm wearing it to prevent further damage to a torn ligament in my right thumb that I'll be having surgery on on 04/25/25. I LOVE its accessibility on how strongly you need to set it to (using the 2 internal (and removable) parts to the splint, plus the splint with neither plastic nor metal piece is pretty good at stabilization on its own. I recommend it to all my physical therapist/occupational therapist that I see frequently for this kind of damage. I have both in right now (right wrist/thumb) for max stability not just to avoid further damage but to train myself to do things left handed as I'm going to be in a cast (completely immobilizing my right thumb and wrist, and forearm) for a while, then a fairly rigid brace (made to fit me), then on and on for about year (including PT) which should be... interesting since I'm STRONGLY right handed so I'm wearing the brace ALSO gives me (what I hope will be) a fairly solid reminder when I try to do stuff with my right hand and focus on being unable to just switch to my right hand when I'm not paying attention. This brace helps with that IMMENSELY. I like that that the brace covers the wrist a bit too since I've also got wrist pain from my injuries. My ONLY complaint (not worth losing a star) is I wish there was some sort of "tag" on the brace itself (or if there is such a thing and someone could tell me where!) that says what size each is (if there is one, I haven't found it). I bought one in each size because the sizing kinda overlapped and honestly I feel like they're pretty much the same fit and would like to return one since I don't need two...the bag has the size but I'm prone to losing things and can't find the proper bags, and if I did I still don't think I'd be able to decide which brace goes in which bag. Mildly annoying but not the end of the world. Great at immobilizing thumb, OR adjusting internal bracing to make a bit softer. Very versatile. Highly recommend for "skier's thumb" as it's called (I don't ski but use a manual wheelchair for a genetic condition called Ehlers Danlos Syndrome and (which can cause regular dislocations) and my right thumb was sick of it as it was constantly dislocated it as I pushed myself (so I've upgraded the style of my push rims so I can't catch my thumb in) but for now I have a partially torn UCL that I'll have to learn to be left handed for about 3-4 months while it heals then lots of occupational therapy. I'm also a cross stitcher so it is highly likely this is some sort of "repetitive movement" injury as well as self-ambulating in my manual chair as my left hand is giving me grief now that I've switched to only stitching on the left hand. Sigh. You just can't win! ---- ETA Update 05/03/25 and am now post op and it turned out I'd actually fully snapped the UCL in the thumb and am in a lot of pain from surgery 8 days post op and I've got another week before the cast they put on me after surgery which is SUPER uncomfortable (to say the least...they offered prescription strength ibuprofen (aka 600mg) which I turned down as I have plenty of the 200mg ones at home. Sheesh you'd think you at least offer Vicodin (a very low-strength opioid but better than IBUPROFEN). Stupid "war on drugs" here in the US. So if you start getting "hypermobile" at the UCL (I highly recommend looking up the ligaments in the thumb on Google images or just search "what does it feel like to have a torn thumb ligament" with loss of strength in a thumb I HIGHLY recommend wearing one of these splints to at least stabilize your thumb(s) until you can see an orthopedist or orthopedic surgeon and highly recommend an MRI on the painful thumb since it's not just the thumb bone but also a tear of the ligament which won't show up on an x-ray you really want to get that MRI. Insurance (at least Medicaid in my (US) state requires an x-ray before doing more expensive imaging (aka MRI) that will show soft tissue injury. I highly recommend it! Stick to the splint until you can get that imaging. Keep a log of each day and what the average "pain level" you experienced and where the pain is (I know everyone hates the 1-10 pain scale but give it a go. It'll prove to your Dr that you're taking this very seriously and you might get bumped higher up the line for the referrals/scans. Seriously post op time plus all the PT/OT after surgery is no joke!

Very good thumb support with the ability to still work. I do use some tape occasionally to immobilize it more on bad days just because of general fit issues, it’s not a custom fit, but you can make it work. I bought two different immobilizers for different uses. This one is really good for still working. The other one I bought is better for rest as it is practically immovable and is much longer on the wrist. All in all this has been a good purchase. Much better than the one I bought in a pinch at wall-hell.

This brace worked so well for my De Quervain tenosynovitis that I ordered a total of 3 (2 for day & 1 for night use). Although I have fairly small hands, the straps can be positioned and adjusted for comfort. The braces held up to a month's worth of of daily wear after I received a cortisone injection, and withstood hand wash/air dry cleaning. Between the plastic insert, metal support bar, and solid construction with quality velcro I found the brace to offer excellent wrist support without being hot or bulky. As a former RN of 25 years I feel this is a quality product for a great price & I would buy it again. Highly recommend.

I injured my thumb, either a ligament or tendon, and went to urgent care. They gave me a wrist brace to immobilize my wrist/thumb. They also gave me a shot of pain medication because my thumb was in excruciating pain. The brace did NOT work at all. By the next morning my whole hand was swollen. I found this brace and figured it would work better. I was SO glad that I got it. It was EXACTLY what I needed. It is adjustable in three different places, so you can loosen or tighten it depending on your needs. It allowed free movement of my fingers so they didn't get stiff and sore, but it kept my thumb protected and stable, so I wouldn't injure it further. I wore it for a couple of weeks to allow the injury to heal. Since then I mostly have it off, but if I do too much and my thumb starts to hurt again, I put it back on. It's so comfortable and not bulky at all. It's pretty easy to put on and adjust and it can work on either the right or left hand! Plus the pink one is pretty fashionable! And it was a great price, especially considering how much it helped!

It worked well for a few weeks but after washing it, it wouldn’t fit again. It stretched out and can’t hold tight anymore. It’s cute but not durable. Why build it to have a removable plate if you can’t wash it? I put it in its own mesh bag, so it couldn’t get caught on any other clothing in the wash.

This is very well made with finished sewn edges and a slightly padded interior. The band between the thumb and palm is adjustable which is great because that is often a pinch-point with braces. It’s firm and supportive, but I can still type easily so it’s not too confining. It’s way better than what I got at the medical store and way less expensive!

J'ai acheté plusieurs atèles car le scratch fini toujours par ne plus adhérer. Mais sur celle ci, aucun problème. Il maintien bien le pouce et le scratch résiste sans problème. Je recommande cette atèle qui sera finalement la seule que je garderait.

Proporciona una compresión justa que ayuda a aliviar las molestias sin llegar a ser agobiante. El tejido es transpirable y se siente de buena calidad, ideal para usar durante el trabajo o actividades ligeras. Como mejora: los bordes de los velcros pueden resultar algo ásperos si entran en contacto directo con la piel sensible, pero se soluciona ajustándolos con precisión

THIS THE BEST SPLINT out of 6 I tried for wrist and thumb pain. The straps on the thumb support and the one on the wrist enable to adjust the splint to your hand very accurately 👌 The hand is very much supported while the splint leaves a lot of comfort in the hand. The product is made of good quality and comfortable fabric Highly recommending! :)

Ottimo prodotto. Comprato per la tendinite di quervain. L'ho usato tantissimo sia per dormire che per aiutarmi con il dolore. Dopo un po' di tempo ho dovuto togliere le stecche interne per ammorbidirlo. Molto comodo da indossare, non ha cuciture fastidiose ed è facilissimo da indossare

Super Artikel. Habe Schmerzen am Dumengelenk . Hebe die kleinen Klett am Daumen so fixiert, dass ich sie beim an und ausziehen nicht lösen muss. Viele haben ja geschrieben, dass diese Klett die Funktion nicht lang halten. Somit habe ich keine Probleme damit. Der große Klett funktioniert einwandfrei bei seitheriger Nutzung. Daumen ist ausreichend fixiert und ich verspüre eine deutliche Schmerzlinderung.Toll ist auch, dass man die Kunststoffverstärkung herausnehmen kann. Ich trage diesen Artikel immer mehrere Stunden am Tag um den Daumen zu entlasten. Man kann trotzdem fast alle Tätigkeiten ausüben ohne große Einschränkungen.
