Carpal tunnel is 100% something I'm not sure about. It was recommended to me by my doctor for a torn ligament that required surgery, but I am allergic to anesthesia. It didn't help me at all, and the doctor was well aware of this. This is what I'll say. It's a disaster. it is noticeable In fact, it resembles a "rad" leather bracelet worn by younger children (to me, anyone under 50 is a child). So it would provide support for any wrist injury or nerve condition, such as carpal tunnel, if you want to wear it without everyone asking, "What did you do to your wrist?" I didn't find it particularly comfortable, but I have a lot of swelling in my wrist. I'm no doctor, but if you want support without an ugly wrist brace, I don't believe it will harm you. And assistance is still assistance, which is preferable to none at all. My opinion is as follows: I hope this information is useful.
It all depends on what your wrist bace is required to accomplish. ) The WristWidget was created to help with TFCC tears - If that's the case, then this brace is right for you. Thanks!

No, it doesn't provide the same level of support as traditional wrist braces, but this isn't a traditional brace, and it's not designed to treat traditional wrist injuries. This is for a TFCC injury that does not necessitate the use of a full wrist brace. All it takes is a little support on either side of the ulna to prevent pain from certain movements. Because it's essentially a bracelet, it's quite simple and does the job perfectly; it's also nice to have nearly full use of my hand. This isn't going to help you if you need a full wrist brace for another reason. However, any other wrist brace will likely support the ulna in a similar manner, so the only reason I'd recommend this product for a TFCC tear is that it's less expensive. Three times as much as a traditional wrist brace, which is still very useful. This "widget" costs $30, but it could have been made for as little as 30 cents. This thing is literally just two pieces of Velcro taped together and cut into a fancy pattern. There are no plastic or metal parts, and there are no seams to sew, just Velcro. That means someone is extremely greedy and somehow considers a 10,000% markup too high. That has to be the highest profit margin ever recorded. This product should cost no more than $10; it's completely ridiculous, but hey, it works! And because it works, I have to give it a few stars, even though I believe the person who set the price should have their head examined.
I was told that I had a torn. It's just that simple. According to an MRI, I have a torn TFCC. TFCC (ulnar impaction syndrome for the medically inclined) was also caused by an abnormally long ulna. My orthopedic surgeon insisted that surgery was the only way to get rid of my condition. I specifically inquired about immobilization and braces, to which he replied that they would be ineffective.
I'm a serious tennis player in my fifties who was devastated to learn that I have a tfcc injury that will not be repaired surgically. My orthopedist said I could keep playing without risking further injury, but the only problem is that it hurts to play. The wrist widget has been extremely helpful in stabilizing and reducing the pain in my wrist. I've rejoined my travel team and resumed my three- or four-day-per-week tennis schedule. Although there is still some discomfort, I enjoy playing so much that it is well worth it. After I've finished playing, I ice. I also cook frequently, and I occasionally wear the wrist widget while dicing and mincing large amounts of food. I also tried the bullseye, but it didn't help nearly as much on the tennis court, which I believe is due to the wrist widget's two small straps that can be tightened independently of one another. In general, I couldn't do a lot of things without this brace.
With regard to TFCC pain, it made a significant difference. I thought it was odd that orthopedists were unaware of its benefits, so I had to do my own research to weed it out. Unfortunately, as a result of this injury, I discovered that some orthopedists are clueless, telling me not to wear a brace or selling me one that was not appropriate in the first place - and it just so happened that they had it on hand. My daughter had been suffering from TFCC pain for months and couldn't seem to get rid of it until she began to wear this. The change was noticeable right away. I think it was the best $30 I've ever spent. Apart from being a customer, I have no involvement with this product.
After a few minutes of nauseating pain, I was confident that the problem would go away on its own. Three weeks later, it was slightly worse, and I had a sickly sensation of "things happening that shouldn't be happening" whenever I opened a door or container by accident or placed weight directly over it. " When I rotated my wrist, it also made a strange clicking sound. When the constant shooting pain up my arm became unbearable, I gave up and sought the advice of Dr. Google. I'm not sure if my injury was TFCC, but I felt immediate relief when I taped it up with scotch tape from my desk drawer. I bought one of these and promptly forgot about it. I forgot to put it on for a day about 3 weeks in and was in pain. It's been about 6 weeks since I removed it. I'm hesitant, but the pain appears to have subsided. I believe it was successful. In addition, there are no strange clicks. Bonus.
When I first noticed signs of carpal tunnel, I started using this product, and the support it provides for my wrists is incredible. Because of the simplicity of the design, it may not appear to be much, but once you start using it, you'll notice how much support it provides. If you have any questions or concerns, their customer service department is excellent and very responsive. $30 may seem like a lot for such a small Velcro wrap, but it lasts a long time; the first one I bought (and still use) was about three years ago. I purchased a second one to use on the opposite wrist.
