Boxer Fracture Hand Splint for 4th & 5th Metacarpals (Left Hand)

This splint is better than a few others of a similar design that i have tried. It feels far more robust, the Velcro stays where you put it without the need to readjust every few minutes, it also is fairly easy to get on and strapped with minimal pain on the injury site (Probably depends on the injury and person, though) This splint does a fantastic job at immobilizing the digits you want, and not impeding on the others. I am able to still somewhat effectively able to use my computer mouse (it does hurt my forearm after a while of use because the angle of your arm has to be a bit different to compensate for the angle of your fingers ) I can strap up to my middle finger from my pinky so this even kind of helps for conditions like Dupentryns contracture (Which I also have in conjunction with a fracture of the 5th metacarpal) and I have been finding benefits from this outside of aiding in the healing of my injury. If you think you have a boxers fracture, get this splint and wear it whether you get confrimation or not, and then when you get into the doctor it will have started to properly heal by the time it gets confirmed leading to a much better outcome. It does begin to irritate the webbing of your thumb area due to the strap that comes around and back over your palm to hold it against your hand, but that can be overcome by wearing an ace wrap, a superskin, blister prevention band aid thing, a band aid, or any other type of skin cover that will stop it from rubbing up against you so much. It gave me a blister at first, and now has a small sore, but that is so far the only drawback of this splint. I couldn't recommend this one enough if you suspect you have a boxers fracture, or need to stabilize your 4th and 5th digits / Metacarpal The ortho said it is exactly what he would have given me and suggests, and that getting it right away was one of the better things I could have done, as it is already showing positive signs of healing.

Fits well keeps hand stable.

Worked perfect for my sons broken hand

Extremely sturdy I like the fact that you can adjust the fingers in the support line however, I feel some parts could be better built fits to size easy to put on enough definitely worth the money

My teenage son fractured his hand and he says this brace is very comfortable. We had the doctor bend the metal support bars into the proper shape for my son's type of fracture, so we know it's doing its job to allow him to heal properly. This is an effective and much more comfortable alternative to a hard plaster cast. Excellent product and value for a great price. We highly recommend it!

I had to buy this splint per my doctors recommendation since they only had the extremely expensive and unnecessary splint left. He didn’t want to foot me with that bill (highly appreciated that) and said I could either get a cast or order a splint online, so of course I opted for the splint since it’s removable for showering. To start with the good: Everything feels good, secure, and well made (overall). I like that there are multiple Velcro straps you can use to easily adjust the splint’s fit/snugness. The sizing chart is also relatively accurate. The bad: The metal bar that goes over the top of your hand is supposed to be able to bend and adjust. This bar takes EFFORT to be able to bend, as in full body weight pushing down against a table sort of effort. Having a broken hand, I can’t exactly do that on my own and wound up needing to go to the doctor’s office to have them help me adjust it. The metal bar made it very difficult to use and caused more pain until I was able to get help adjusting it. The soft part of the Velcro area for the ring/pinky finger is also getting a bit worn out from needing to adjust so much due to issues with the metal not bending.

I could not find this locally, but the splint my Dr gave was a chore to apply and remove for showers. I wanted and needed to take off my splint for showers, so Amazon to the rescue. The item came quickly and was exactly as described. I wore this for 6 weeks, and it allowed me to heal the same as the splint/ace wrap my Dr applied. I could adjust the velcro to allow for swelling and comfort. I would recommend.

Help me alot

De verdad un producto bueno. Si tienes fractura de boxeador. Me a ayudado a sanar muy bien.

We purchased a much cheaper version ($12) that came with only one sided vendor and no metal support rods. Returned and purchased this for he 6 longs my husband just keep his pinky splinted at night post surgery for Dupuytren contracture (Vikings disease). Very, very similar to the one that woukd have cost $400+ to have a hand specialist specially designed one for him. He’s hard on his hands so I wouldn’t be surprised if we need another before the end of the 6 months but that just him and most people will have no problem making it last that long. It’s a him flaw, not a cheap product flaw. Either way.. $60 beats $400*. Metal bar is not at all difficult to shape unlike others have said, and I’m on chemo and fairly weak so I’m thinking that may be a problem only certain people may have. Super supportive and easy for him to wear for long periods with temporary breaks.

Just exactly at advertised, no games. Fit perfectly 👌🏻

Buenisimo, es el que me recomendó el Dr, tiene la forma de la mano, lo compré en talla chica y me ajusto perfectamente. Gracias Amazon.

Exactly what I wanted. If only I bought it sooner.
