LTG PRO® Neoprene Thumb Support Spica CMC Brace Splint Stabiliser Sprain Strain Arthritis (Purple, S-L (15-20cm) Left Hand)

Definite 5 stars for this CMC support glove!I have several thumb supports for CMC Basal Thumb Arthritis in my left thumb, which causes a lot of pain and usually limits my grip, strength and dexterity. I have bought different types of thumb splint/ support gloves for different activities and degrees of support. Some are really good, but some have just been an expensive waste of money and unable to return :(((I decided to look for a Neoprene glove and eventually found this one and decided to give it a try as it's only £4.99 and Free Postage.Neoprene will keep the area it covers warm, which stimulates blood flow in that area and "can have" a beneficial effect on pain relief and prevention. I used to use Neoprene knee supports years ago when running long distances and found them very beneficial and fantastic on my old knee injuries.Neoprene WILL make your skin sweat to some degree, because it does, and is meant to, increase heat in that area through the stimulation in blood flow. Therefore, it is IMPORTANT that the glove (or any other Neoprene item) is washed very frequently and best hand washed, if possible, in warm (not really hot) water, as stale sweat will make any Neoprene smell and become unhygienic.As with any Neoprene item, it is important to wash the glove thoroughly in warm soapy water and rinse thoroughly before wearing.I was delighted at how well made these gloves are. The fabric is good quality on both sides as is the stitching. The edges (apart from the top of the thumb) are all fabric edged and oversewn with a zigzag stitch and the velcro is in all the right places!I have attached photos of the opened out glove showing both the inside as well as the outside views.I ordered the S/L size as I have large hands for a woman and take a size 8 or 9 in a woman's glove. This thumb support glove adjusts perfectly for a firm OR "slightly" looser fit on my hand if desired. My wrist circumference is 17cm and hand circumference just above my thumb is 21cm so the S/L size is perfect for my hand 👍😁I only bought one of these in purple just to try it out, but am going to order another 1 (or 2) in black as you really need a spare while the other is being washed and I can see these being worn A LOT!The glove is VERY comfortable to wear, gives good compression and a "medium" support which allows for greater flexibility when performing activities where you need to have as full as possible range of movement within your own limitations.I also like the fact that it is LATEX free, as I am allergic to latex!I would recommend this item 100%. However, as everyone is different, I would order one at first to see how you get on with it just in case it's not for you!It also arrived 2 days earlier than the expected arrival date via Royal Mail, so that was a nice surprise. I would recommend this item and the Seller. A very happy customer 😁

This was immediately effective, and it looked great too - not that you want to have a poorly thumb that requires splinting. It was comfortable and soft, and once the thumb is in position and the wrist velcro is secured you bring the strap around the thumb...HOWEVER that last velcro piece is tiny so after just a few days it stopped 'sticking' even those I pulled off a few loose hairs/cotton fibres from my clothing...I now stick the end of the strap under itself!And I have to watch the support frequently because the material smells!

Good product but the thumb tube is very large thus not providing support, It is labelled as S-L i think it should be M-L. I am returning it and looking for a smaller size.

Comfort and colour, supports where I need it thankyou 😊

It's great support for my arthritic thumb. A little bit big around the hand. But that's not a huge issue
