## Overview

The Comfort Cool Thumb CMC Restriction Splint is a lightweight, patented thumb brace designed to provide targeted support and compression for the thumb CMC joint. Crafted from breathable 1.6mm perforated neoprene with a soft terry cloth liner, it offers all-day comfort while allowing full finger function. Developed with expert hand therapists, this brace helps alleviate discomfort from arthritis, tendinitis, and repetitive strain injuries. Available in multiple sizes with a trim-to-fit option, it ensures a customized fit for enhanced joint stability and swelling reduction.

## Description

Provides direct support for the thumb CMC joint while allowing full finger function Made of thin, 1/16" (1.6mm) perforated neoprene with a terry cloth liner that helps keep skin cool and comfortable. Reinforced stitching allows the splint to be trimmed below the thumb MP joint if desired. Specifically designed for osteoarthritis and medial subluxation of the thumb CMC joint. Provides gentle compression that helps relieve thumb discomfort associated with CMC joint arthritis and/or instability, tendinitis or repetitive motion. Contoured neoprene strap wraps around the thumb CMC joint and the first metacarpal for direct CMC joint support. Plus sizes are a half size bigger in the hand and a full size larger in thumb circumference to accommodate enlarged thumb conditions. Anti-microbial and is not made with natural rubber latex. Available in Black or Beige. To size, measure palm circumference.

Review: Glad I purchased this one! - Originally, I went by the instructions to measure across the knuckle for the brace. I ordered a Small/Med & it was too small. It cut the circulation off in my thumb. I sent this back and ordered a Medium, which fits perfectly. The strap that fits around the thumb adds a great deal of stability and there is no hard metal in the brace. I personally like this because it's soft yet stable. I wear it only at night right now because I recently had a cortisone shot, which alleviates the pain totally, for 3-4 months. My doctor and I talked about surgery, which would be a permanent fix, however, the down time would be significant - 4 weeks of complete disuse of left hand, (I'm left handed). Plus 4 more weeks of very little use. Complete healing would take a total of 1 year. I was all for it in the office, however, have reconsidered since I've read all about the surgery and down-time involved. I think the brace will help with delaying the cortisone injections.
Review: Reasonably priced for the relief it’s provided me. I’m very pleased with this purchase! - My OT therapist recommended this to me. She measured me so as to get a good fit. So far I really like it. It helps to keep my thumb stabilized and still maintain flexibility and control of my fingers. It’s a good design with a padded palm and wrap around support with Velcro. Although it somewhat limits the extent of thumb motion the thumb is still usable within its restrictions and certainly much better than not using it. Easy to use, effectively reduces the pain and more comfortable than I would have thought possible.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic Thumb protector & holder
*by P***M on 23 January 2020*

I was a little hesitant to buy this because of the price, it's fairly expensive considering the other thumb protector I also bought on Amazon that was only $10 (Reversible Thumb & Wrist Stabilizer - which is also very good BTW.) That said, this one is clearly higher end, very good quality soft neoprene like material, soft and gentle feeling. Better thumb support. Surprisingly, as much as it wraps around your thumb it's not bulky and is very comfortable. It leaves more of the palm exposed than any other of the 4-5 thumb holders I have. I have thumb arthritis -the joint at the base of my thumb can be painful, it swells, it gets red, sometimes difficult to do simple tasks like opening jars, etc. and this is great. It' can't solve my problem but it sure makes me forget about it. It may look slightly bulky and does have an extra strap that comes from the wrist, goes around the thumb and Velcro's back at the wrist BUT that slight "extra" strap is slim & adds just a teeny bit of extra bulk really isn't noticed and doesn't hinder movement in anyway - the material is so soft, you don't notice, it just gives more protection and support which is great. Highly recommend overall! I do agree with the questions of some other reviewers about the fact that it tells you to measure the palm of your hand at the knuckles and yet, there is nothing around your knuckles. It wraps at the wrist. So yeah, odd that they have you measure the knuckle width as opposed to the wrist however it fit me perfect! On that note, the width of my palm came out to 7 ¼" so I ordered the 7-8" medium - I probably could have ordered the 7 ¼" - 8 ¼" medium as well. FYI my particular wrist is fairly tiny, just 6" so if I had a bigger wrist then maybe you'd want to order a size upI f you're in-between sizes or close, I'd go the size up.
