3-Point Products Oval-8 Finger Splints, Support and Protection for Arthritis, Trigger Finger or Thumb, and Other Finger Conditions Multi-Size Pack of 5 (8,9,10,11,12)

I used this product for my trigger finger. It worked well and I was very satisfied with it. Would recommend to others.

I bought a multi-pack of 3 sizes for my thumb. The measured size was the smallest but all will work. It immobilizes my thumb and with an anti inflammatory is giving it time to heal. Easy on and off when needed although getting it wet doesn’t affect anything. It seemed a bit expensive but is well worth it. I’m glad I got it for my trigger thumb. I wish I had known about it when I had trouble with a finger years ago

This is what I been looking for and need!I been in so much pain with a trigger finger (ring) on my right hand, and very painful swollen pillows below finger joints and into palm of hand.Last year I managed a trigger finger (middle) on my left hand using tape, stretchable tape, finger braces and gritting my teeth, I spent a lot of money. I finally managed to calm all the every day pain down with finger sleeves. All the rest didn't work at all. The finger braces always slipped off my finger, the compression gloves and finger sleeves aggravated Raynaud's by swollen fingers causing numbness and cold finger tips. Eventually the combination of stretchy taping and finger sleeves has calmed down the constant pain to just the occasional trigger which is very painful. But it wasn't a good solution because both had to be changed many times a day as they got dirty and were a problem especially in the kitchen. But without taping the finger it would snap down every time I used my hand and not come back up on its own, and hurt like the dickens. But eventually, many months, this happened less and less frequently and stopped hurting all the time. But the taping was still needed and I couldn't accept the crapy solution to the trigger finger problem for the rest of my life. Eek!Then 6 weeks ago I got severe pain in my right hand, with the ring finger becoming a trigger finger and a very painful palm, shooting pain. Doctor put me on a high dose of anti-inflammatory, but it didn't do much, except upset my stomach. This drove me back online searching for better solution because what I been doing for a year now just wasn't working for me. This being the right hand presented some additional problems. This made me completely handicapped. Sounds crazy, it's just a trigger finger don't be such a baby, I mean it isn't a broken arm just a darn finger, that's going to totally handicap me? Crazy yea, it's what I been telling myself. But this really hurt even doing nothing with that hand, and I couldn't do the things I loved. Cooking became such a problem, like holding the large knives to cut veggies or meat, keeping the tape clean and sanitary. The finger sleeves and tape got wet, dirty or slipped off into the food, and became contaminated. I tried just about everything, even invented some solutions on my own, but non really solved all the problems and allowed me a normal life. It's a difficult retirement when you can't do things you love anymore, can't cook, garden, knit, play cards, draw or even play computer games, even writing was difficult. I can't believe how much money I spent trying different things, braces and supports, I even bought a full brace for people who had a stroke to wear at night. Some things did help some of the time but all had problems which made life difficult.Then I finally seen these Oval-8 Finger Splints mentioned and well explained on some website, and I could immediately see that if this works then it will solve all the problems I had with the different aids. I'm glad that Amazon carries these at a better price and as prime member no shipping costs. I immediately ordered a set of three which makes sense. Measurements suggested and what you actually need are interpreted differently. So I got one size bigger, one smaller and one what I need, and I still have the trigger finger on the left hand too.I been wearing one on each trigger finger now for two days and nights (am still wearing the full stroke brace at night) and I have my life back, I been cooking without any problems, yea! It's important to know though that these splints are stiff and hard and it will take some time to get used to them, to the pressure from something I am not used to have on my fingers. Yea, it's a bit uncomfortable. Make sure you get the correct size, because if it's too big or too small they will really dig into the finger and the palm ( I'm wearing mine over the middle joint) and hurt. I got the the middle finger correct and this one feels so comfortable I don't even notice I have it on. Now the ring finger splint is a size too big, this will work when my finger is swollen, but not for right now. Not only does it slip off when wet but it does also really dig into the base of the finger, very uncomfortable. So ordered a smaller size as well. It's a bit of a trial and error.Since I have Raynaud's as well, and probably some arthritis, I have to wear gloves most of the time to keep the fingers warm, or it will trigger bad symptoms. I have to keep my fingers warm all the time. I got stretchy knit gloves and also a pair of mittens, both fit loosely over the splints. If they are too snug there will be pressure, swelling, numbness and pain. Taking the swelling into consideration I have two different sizes of splints for each trigger finger. I think this is going to work real well. And if I'm lucky the ring finger trigger will also simmer down and not trigger every time I fold the fingers, just like the middle finger on my left hand, and I may not need the splints all the time. But for now I'm wearing them 24/7.Important, check the size you need, or better buy the three pack with one size larger, one correct and one size smaller, 10/11/12 is what I got. I wish it came in 9/10/11. I highly recommend these splints.

Just what was needed for my mallet finger! I measured per the recommendations and decided that one of these, 6/7/8 set would likely fit my injured finger. Sure enough, size seven was just right. It immobilized the DIP and still allowed me to move the middle joint, mostly. The mostly is where it gets interesting.While the movement allowed at the middle joint was enough, I have short fingers and play the guitar finger style and I did not want to irritate the skin that close to the middle joint. (YES! I can still finger pick while wearing this splint, a huge advantage over a stax, let alone a full finger splint which immobilizes the full finger.) It turns out there is a fix(instructions) to deal with my short fingers too!By reading the instructions on the their site, it is clear these splints are adjustable and though it is recommended this be left to a professional, instructions are provided and it is really quite straight forward as long as you have a suitable heat gun (which I do). The instructions are quite explicit and there was a specific recommendation for my case, short finger: Find the size that fits, then select one size smaller and adjust it to the right height and width. I took the size 6, also included in the set and carefully adjusted per the instruction and BINGO, perfect fit with plenty of clearance to provide no restriction at all to the middle joint while still keeping tip joint (DIP) fully immobilized and slightly hyperextended which is the recommended treatment for a mallet finger.To be clear, this is great but not magic. For a mallet finger you need to wear the splint for a long time, 3-4 weeks if the bone broke, or 6-8 weeks if just the tendon was injured as it was in my case. (Orthopedists indicate it takes 12 weeks for a tendon to heal, twice as long a bone fracture!) 8 weeks is a long time and wearing a splint that long is not the most comfortable thing. Even though this is better than most. It takes a while to get used to it. For me it took about a week and a half. It never gets completely comfortable, but it is certainly unobtrusive visually and a lot more comfortable than any other option I tried or have used in the past for other finger injuries.Where it gets most irritating is over the joint where the ring sits. The company recommends a small gel pad to prevent irritation, but what I found works even better is Dr. Scholl Moleskin! It is very soft, and available in different thicknesses. If you are a hiker or climber you may be familiar with this product as it is typically used to created a pad on a part of the foot the might be irritated by a rubbing shoe or boot. I used the thinnest version and cut a small strip to go over the joint under the ring on the splint. With this in place much of the time I hardly noticed I was wearing the splint and there was no irritation at all.The other big plus is it (the Oval 8 splint) is easy to keep clean, unlike other splints. It is also completely open so the finger gets plenty of air. Most other splint types enclose the finger, must be kept completely dry, and somehow still must be cleaned regularly to prevent your finger from smelling like a dirty foot.I hope some find this review useful or even helpful. I strongly recommend this splint for any of the various (and there are several) injuries it is intended to help.About the only thing it wouldn't be good for is where there is serious damage, crushing or laceration, to the tip of the finger which therefore needs to be protected from bumping; i.e., something better protected by a hard finger cot. full splint, or other hard fingertip protection device.

Buenos días!Desde que lo pedí me di cuenta que no había medidas específicas así que pensé que vendrían 3 diferentes tamaño adulto pero me llegaron 3 para niños supongo, muy pequeños, así que no me sirvió.

This splint is light weight and allows great functionality of fingers. There various sizes are great as my finger swells up / down so having various sizes was helpful.

To measure the thumb joint, wrapped a 1/2" wide strip of paper around the joint marking the circumference with a pencil. The paper wrap was not very tight. Did this three times then took measurements with a ruler. With an average measurement of 2 12/16" ordered three splint sizes 10, 11 & 12 which cover a range of 2 11/16" - 2 15/16". Checked the fit of each splint both ways. The size 10 splint was too small. The size 11 splint fits but was found to be uncomfortable for long term use. The size 12 splint is the best fit, not too tight, allowing some movement but preventing the joint from clicking. I have no problem wearing the size 12 splint at night to prevent previous occurrences of the thumb joint locking in a bent position. Based on my experience care should be taken not to order a splint that will be too tight. The package of three sizes provides the best chance of getting a good fit.

These splints have been very effective at treating trigger thumb and finger for both my husband and myself. I have been able to able to avoid cortisone treatments after just two weeks of use. After several physio appointments, and dry needling, the physiotherapist and I agreed to try splinting for my thumb. I am thrilled to say the trigging is gone. My husband is now using the splints for his finger and hopes to have the same results.
