Medi Thumb Support

The Medi Thumb Support is a thumb brace designed for effective immobilisation and relief of the basal and saddle thumb joint.

Immobilisation and Support

The Medi Thumb Support provides reliable immobilisation for the thumb's basal and saddle joints. This is crucial for individuals experiencing pain or instability in this area. The support incorporates a mouldable aluminium splint, which can be customised to the individual's anatomy for optimal positioning and support. This targeted immobilisation helps to reduce movement-related pain and create an environment conducive to healing.

Comfort and Material

Crafted from a skin-friendly and durable cotton-lycra material, the Medi Thumb Support is designed for comfortable wear, even for extended periods. The materials are chosen to be gentle on the skin, and the product is intended for use only on intact skin. Its thoughtful construction ensures that the fingers remain free, allowing for continued dexterity in daily activities while the thumb is securely supported.

Medical Indications

This thumb brace is indicated for a variety of conditions requiring the immobilisation of the basal and saddle thumb joint. These include rhizarthritis (arthritis at the base of the thumb), ligament injuries such as 'skier's thumb' or 'gamekeeper's thumb', general irritations of the thumb joint like carpometacarpal joint arthrosis, and rheumatoid arthritis. It is also suitable for postoperative immobilisation to aid in recovery.

Sizing and Fit

The Medi Thumb Support is available in various sizes, from Small to Extra Large, to accommodate a wide range of users. It is designed to be used interchangeably on either the left or the right hand, offering versatile application.
