Push Sports Thumb Brace

The Push Sports Thumb Brace offers a solution for persistent pain in the thumb as a result of overstretching the middle thumb joint (MCP-1) due to, for example, a ball or skiing accident. The thumb brace stabilizes the joint, giving the affected ligaments the chance to heal. The thumb cap protects the sore thumb against impact from a ball, for example. The straps on the brace are individually adjustable so that the user can determine to what extent the bending movement of the thumb should be limited. The straps also compensate for the slack that is caused by damage to the ligaments. The strap system is crosswise and provides lateral support to the middle thumb joint. The other thumb joints and the wrist retain their freedom of movement. The thumb brace keeps the palm free and fits well under a goalkeeper or ski glove.
