Arm and wrist supports for your injuries

Our hands and wrist play a significant role in day-to-day activities. Any injury or dislocation from conditions like arthritis, tendon injury, or a hairline fracture can hamper your tasks. Apollo Pharmacy offers arm and wrist supports that benefit you by accelerating the recovery process.

Arm and wrist supports are over-the-counter products for minor or intermediate injuries in your hands or upper extremities. They are adjustable aids with elastic bands and straps so that you can easily fit them on your hands.

An occupational therapist recommends these supportive tools to patients with wrist, nerve or tendon injuries and arthritis. The primary purpose of arm and wrist supports is to stabilise your joints and enhance their performance.

Benefits of using splints for arm and wrist

While there are different applications of splints, it is essential to evaluate your condition with the help of a physical therapist and get the right one for your injury. This is because arm and wrist supports have different designs based on the area of use. These include:

  • Supporting wrists to improve the tendon injury 
  • Stabilising finger joints to protect them from strain
  • Preventing sprain in palm bones such as tarsals and metatarsals 
  • Here are some benefits of arm and wrist supports: 
  • Reduction of swelling and inflammation around the area of injury 
  • Support for the muscles weakened due to an injury
  • Post-surgery recovery by keeping joint reconstruction together 
  • Enhance the movement of the injured area by slowly relieving the stiffness in the joint

Why are supports for wrist injuries preferred over casts?

One of the primary reasons to opt for arm and wrist supports is that they are removable and have multiple purposes. These include prevention of a significant injury, protection from further damage, and improving recovery rate.

However, these are beneficial over casts because you can monitor the recovery as and when you like. Instead of waiting for a doctor’s appointment, you can easily remove splints for arm and wrists. This makes them a cost-effective solution compared to casts.

There are more reasons why arm and wrist supports are preferred over casts. Such as:

  • You can adjust them as per your comfort 
  • Don’t have to worry about damaging them as you can remove them before bathing and wound dressing
  • It is easy to monitor the progress by checking inflammation, swelling, and pain
