Description

A rigid thumb and wrist splint designed to immobilise the base of the thumb during de Quervain's or "texting thumb" flares. A continuous moulded bridge locks the thumb and wrist together, preventing the specific joint articulation that aggravates the condition. The C-shell design allows the splint to slide onto the arm while maintaining structural rigidity.

  • Includes two sizes (Small measures 140mm along the forearm with a 45mm thumb post)
  • Grid ventilation cutouts across the forearm and thumb regions to improve airflow
  • Four integrated routing slots sized for standard Velcro tension straps
  • Open medial cutaway for easier fitting and removal

Print with adequate perimeters for rigidity. The interior clearance accounts for standard dimensions, but rigid braces benefit from a thin layer of foam padding or a fabric sleeve worn underneath to prevent skin chafing during extended wear.
