Neo-G Finger Splint, Easy-Fit - Support For Trigger Finger, Mallet Finger, Strain, Sprains, Broken Fingers - Patented Design - Class 1 Medical Device - Large - Grey

So easy and painless to put on and take off (the ones with velcro are sometimes painful to get off due to the oressure of the strong velcro). Also a very effective splint! I tried different styles of splint and this was the best for comfort. It came within a day too!

The idea is good but found this Neo G finger splint didn’t mould to my finger in away I expected. Have persevered with wearing it but today four days after receiving it the finger splint has split ( see photographs). I bought this to wear while doing my knitting I have to say it was comfortable to wear and did help my finger. Only sorry that it has split.

The design of these is both fantastic, and kind of rubbish. On the one hand, they’re incredibly easy to fit, and very comfortable. They also allow some airflow, which if you’re needing to wear a brace for weeks on end is an extremely good feature. The design is simple and really quite innovative, and K found the small size fitted even my very stumpy little pinkie finger. However, the splints are inclined to fall off, and I never managed to find a way of fitting them that eliminated this problem. They also aren’t long lasting, and the plastic begins to peel away from the foam within a few days of constant use. If you wear the splint tightly (to prevent it falling off) it can also cause some irritation at the points where it pinches. Overall, it’s one of the best splinting options available, but the fact that it’s ‘the best’ doesn’t mean that it’s particularly good. This says a lot about the state of the digit-stabilising medical equipment sector lol. I guess the lessons I’m taking away from my experience with these and other splints is that snapping the tendons and bones in your finger sucks; healing those injuries also sucks, and requires you to be in a splint 24/7 for 10 weeks. You’ll probably need to buy various splints and braces and rotate them/wear different ones for different activities, because these products also, by and large, suck, and you’ll need to try to account for the faults and weaknesses in each design. The best solution is probably prevention, so do your best not to snap all the key components of any of your fingers… but if you do, there are at least worst solutions than this.

It’s good, comfortable, recommended by physiotherapist.

This is my second of these splints. The first one cracked after less than a week of use. Initially I found it comfortable and easy to use; it can be on and off in a second (for example, when showering you might want to slip it off and then reapply it when your skin is dry). It bends easily and fits your finger snugly. But I made the mistake of over-bending it every time I needed to remove or adjust it, and this led to the material it's made from fatiguing and eventually splitting. So I bought another one, and this time I make only minimal adjustments every time I need to move it or take it off and put it back on. I know from experience that if you're pulling it wide open to take it off, then crushing it tightly around your finger every time you put it back on, the thing will soon fatigue and then split. I do like it; it's comfortable and appears to be really helping my mallet finger injury. But I now know I have to be gentle with it, and mustn't push it, pull it, bend it and stretch it all the time. Minimal adjustments only. With that in mind I'd say it does the job very well.

This is my second splint to straighten my pinkie finger while the broken tendon heals. It works well; there is no question about that. A couple of points: You may need to experiment with the size. It may not last very long. It's just the nature of the metal that it will eventually fatigue and break. I use it at night or when it needs to look good; otherwise, I wrap the finger in a few turns of duct tape to keep it straight.

At first the splint seemed really good; snug fit, good support, and more breathable that other splints I've used. However it didn't take long for the gel outer protection to split at the tip of the finger. Not long after that the metal itself split rendering the splint useless. I wouldn't recommend this if you are needing it for anything other than short term, immediate support.

I bought this on the recommendation of a friend after I injured a finger at training. I read the reviews and was slightly concerned about its fragility especially as I bump my hands into things all the time - never had a watch for this reason. With some care, even after several weeks, I have not broken it. A simple rinse and wipe looks after built up sweat. I had to take it off a lot when washing hands but it's easy to put back on. It wasn't able to stop me from bumping my injured finger into things but it lessened the impact and provided stability, giving it much needed opportunity to heal. I think I had it about for 4 weeks now and finally the injury is gone. I couldn't wear it during training, inside gloves abs high intensity exercises that use hands. It also slips p off easily when coming into enough force, but that it expected. Just need to make sure you don't lose them but that's not the product's fault. The size measurement guide was correct for me. I am very happy to recommend this product and would but again if this one ever breaks.

Reçu l'article ce jour. Très bon produit, et très bon maintien du doigt blessé. Suis très satisfaite. Cordialement. Franck.M

To easy to break

IL PRODOTTO E' MOLTO COMODO E FACILE DA UTILIZZARSI.HO SCELTO UNA MISURA GRANDE ADATTA ALLE MIE ESIGENZE.OTTIMO PER IL SUO IMPIEGO DI DITA TRAUMATIZZATE O A SCATTO!

Mein Mann nutzt die Schiene in der Nacht, damit sein Schnappfinger ihn bis zur OP nicht zu viel Schmerzen bereitet. Die Schiene ist innen weich gepolstert. Sie ist biegsam und kann daher individuell an den Träger angepasst werden. Sie ist bisher nachts auch nicht abgefallen. Auch der Preis der Schiene ist akzeptabel.

I use this for trigger finger and it's perfect for me, but I don't use it the way it's supposed to be used. What I really need is a solution that keeps me from completely straightening the finger (which makes the tendonitis hurt) or completely bending the finger (gets locked that way) AND that lets me work with my hands during the day. Amazon used to sell an unusual articulated finger brace advertised for sports that does exactly what I want, but it's held on with two rubber straps that deteriorate and fall apart. (It was white plastic with vents in it so you could still hold a bat or dribble/catch a ball, and last time I check you couldn't even find it on eBay.) Anyway, this works for me because I wear it "backwards" -- instead of putting the opening at the top (as illustrated) so the middle joint can't move, I put the open part on the bottom. I can straighten and bend the finger enough to type, grab things off shelves and even do some handwork like beading but I can't fully extend or fully bend the finger. It's perfect. In fact, I came to this page today to order another because I seem to have left this in a public bathroom. It's very well made and you can adjust the width as needed. As noted, I'm not using it the way you're "supposed" to but it definitely does immobilize the joint when used as directed and it definitely limits the range of motion in a therapeutic way if you use it backwards.
