Elbow Brace, Night Splint Support for Cubital Tunnel Syndromean, Ulnar Nerve, Stabilizer Brace for Fix Elbow, Prevent Excessive Bending at night, Fits Left and Right Arms,Women, Men (S/M)

I had surgery for Carpal tunnel and also cubital tunnel/ ulnar nerve transposition on my left arm all on March 5. My surgery didn’t go well and Im on the road to a long recovery. It’s been very hard sleeping every night as you can imagine. 2 months went by and I was about losing my mind with no sleep because I just could not get my arm in a comfortable position. Throughout the day I tend to protect it a lot, and bend my arm more then straighten it which is a huge problem. I finally decided to order this brace and see if maybe it would help me with this issue when I sleep. Since I can’t seem to straighten my arm during the day, maybe slowly at night it will start to get straighter. Well the very first night I wore it I slept so comfortably, so soundly, so amazingly, and I just wished I had ordered it sooner. The brace is so soft on inside. If you follow the directions on how to exactly wear it then I think you will love it too. It’s not meant to fit tightly. Doesn’t need too. It will not allow you to bend your arm at all if worn correctly. Its kept my arm from going into awkward positions that I would normally do. It’s helped straighten my arm quite a bit. My physical therapist says it’s a definite keeper. And if she says so then I know it’s good. It’s never caused me any pain or discomfort, just the opposite. I have had it now for a couple weeks and I just LOVE IT!!!

So yes, this brace is not all together comfortable and did take a few nights to get used to wearing it. However, after a couple of weeks of wearing it to bed, my elbow pain drastically decreased. I haven't had to wear it in a few weeks, it helped that much.A funny story- I purchased 2, 1 for each elbow as I have a C7 compression which affects the arms and elbows most. I don't really need to wear it on both arms, as I quickly found out on night one. I had put them on, and I couldn't move my arms. I was like the little brother in "A Christmas Story" after their mom put him in his snow suit. My arms were sticking out, and I couldn't bend them. I stood there swaying them back and forth, laughing my butt off.

Oct 2018 I had left cubital tunnel surgery for ulnar nerve entrapment. The surgery was successful however recently I've been having constant pain at my elbow.It mostly gets inflamed at night when sleeping when my arm is bend during sleep. The pain lasts for hours and at times I cannot straighten my elbow for 3 or 4 minutes.This brace is easy to put on and remove. I wear it every night at bedtime. It works great because there is a flat metal rod that I can adjust the bend angle on to fit the amount of restriction I want to avoid a full bend and the subsequent pain. The other feature I appreciate is the open elbow area which avoids constricting the ulnar nerve.Although some of my daily activities like heavy lifting or full arm extension will cause a flare up I remain 90% pain free. I do recommend daily use to relieve your pain.If after a few nights your pain has not improved I strongly suggest that you see an orthopedist for medical option including surgery.9/1/23 I returned the brace for replacement. The metal strip that is in a sleeve which gets adjusted to the bend restriction needed began to tear. I am hoping that it's a one time problem.

I have had this for a few weeks purchaesed for my cubital tunnel syndrome. Too early to tell if it's the best one. I could not shape the three slim aluminum pieces to improve it's function. I may have hastedly purchased this item.

Used to help stretch elbow during the night after some time in a cast.

Needed something to stabilize my elbow while I was in bed prior to surgery. This has an elastic strap to cross over your chest to keep the sleeve from sliding down. The strap was extremely uncomfortable on the opposing shoulder. Could not use.

Worked great to lock my arm straight at night to relive numbness in two of my fingers caused by nerve issue in elbow.

Comfortable and well made, comes with over the shoulder strap to keep it in place. This is the second elbow brace purchased, the first was inexpensive, but was shorter, didn't stay in place and allowed to much movement, so I bought this one which does the job properly.
