3-Point Products Oval-8 Finger Splint, Size 7, Pack of 1, Beige

Wonderful device Easy to use Very helpful

seems to work, holds finger from binding at the knuckle. make sure you have the correct size. My first one was too tight and the finger became very cold from lack of circulation. I went up one size and have had no problems.

Swear on my life that this is not a paid review. I had almost no use of my right hand. My thumb was so inflamed, it felt like someone was hammering nails into it any time i tried to use it. I have trigger finger in my middle finger, but to have it in the thumb is the worst thing EVER. It was getting locked in the bent position and swell up, and i'd be just writhing. My boyfriend was starting to think i was just being a drama queen, but it was BAD. I learned to do things with my left hand and just a few of my right fingers, and i thought "omg is this my FUTURE?" The doctor did nothing. I was already eating an anti-inflammatory diet and taking lots of turmeric and the occasional ibuprofen. He told me to get a paraffin bath. Been there done that - not a solution by any stretch. I realized i needed to immobilize this thumb, cuz any time i did anything, it would pop into a bent position and i'd be doubled over. Then it would pop back and i'd be doubled over again. Medeival torture, and there's WORK to do. So i got the Oval-8. I didn't want to, but i'd tried compression finger sleeves, and that didn't do the trick. I was trying to save money. This thumb splint is PERFECT. I followed the sizing guidelines and got a 7-8. I've had it on 24/7 for 2 weeks, and i don't want to take it off - it has changed my life! I don't actually know when or if i should take it off. So I'll be finding another doctor who can refer me to the right specialist. If i need a procedure, that's fine. But for now, the Oval-8 thumb splint is my best friend in the world. Kicking myself for being cheap and waiting so long - inflammation is damaging, and needs to be addressed sooner than later.

Great for freeing up my finger to type. Two issues: it didn’t quite make my finger straight enough to correct mallet finger and it actually began cutting off circulation and my finger started swelling. Had to continually remove it, and finally had to go back to my old splint overnight with a little diy padding to cause the finger to be bent a little back at the tip. Lot of trial and error. Then my finger was locked from bending no less than a 90 degree angle, but over time with movement, alternating hot water and cold water while moving it, and the use is about 95% bendable. This splint is a good idea and probably works well for various issues, but for mallet finger you will need it to bend the tip back a little more. I would recommend it as an option for some conditions. Also, for the record it is taking about 5-6 months for full healing of mallet finger, and now it bends not only straight, but I can hyper extend it like before the injury. Long healing though, especially while moving, lifting, packing boxes.

My husband and I have used these for multiple functions and they work well for all of them. He has trigger finger in many of his fingers and has worn these for about six months now. His started seeing significant improvement after just a few weeks and now all but one of his fingers have healed. I overextended my thumb and index finger and tried a couple to see if they would help protect them long enough to heal and these did a great job. I am also double-jointed in both thumbs and tend to pop my thumbs entirely too much. I started noticing what I'm assuming is the onset of arthritis from decades of popping, so I tried one of these on each thumb. They don't keep me from popping them but they make me aware of my thumbs so that when I want to pop them subconsciously I now stop myself. The color on these are perfect as well. I've worn them on business trips and at work and they are very discreet.

If you are looking for a finger splint, this is a must have! It is so low profile and allows full function of your finger and hand. My finger became injured when my daughter twisted it while holding my hand. I went to the doctor thinking she may have broken my finger, but xrays didn't show that to be the case. He recommended hand physical therapy which couldn't get me in for 3 weeks. In the mean time, I bought the huge metal finger splint which caused more problems because it hit everything! My physical therapist found I had pulled/strained the ligaments in my finger and introduced me to Oval 8 splint. It is fantastic and prevents me from over extending my finger as well as accidently bending it sideways when I hit it on the turn signal in my car or anywhere else. It is so low profile, no one realizes I have it on right next to my wedding rings. I really am happy with it and have found it is helping me significantly! I keep it on all the time because I found during my sleep, I kept banging my finger on the bed or getting it caught in the sheets and straining it more, causing me to wake in pain. It does come in 2 sizes. I have the 7, which turned around is a 7.5. This has been nice when my finger swells a bit. If it is hard to put on, i have put a little lotion on and it slides right past my knuckle. Running under cool water has helped as well when in a bind. Order a size up if swelling is an issue. Also, this is made of a thick durable plastic and will not bend or break easily.

Oh, these are very good. They fit well, they hold the finger as straight as needed for pretty much whatever ails you. They are not as obtrusive as many of the other types. But they have a problem with falling off. Looking at it, I can see that there isn't any place to put something to hold it on; the design is very simple, and any sort of fastening would complicate things. The odd thing about their falling off, at least for me, is that they Are Never Heard From Again. There must be seven or eight of the things lurking somewhere in the obscure recesses of my house. I am tempted to blame the washing machine; I know for sure that it steals handkerchiefs. In any case, you have to use a piece of tape if you have any hope of keeping them. I'm looking for tape that is good for the purpose. I've been using Micropore surgical tape, which has a lot of good uses; this is not one of them, because it leaves a gummy residue. The only Band-Aids that stay on wet or dry are the fabric ones, and within an hour or so, you have ratty raveled edges there. I'm thinking about those Velcro ties I use to group my computer wires. Ah, well, my problem. Anyway, the splint is worth five stars. The constant falling off is the reason for the down-tick.

Works great.
