Hand splints

 I've tried a couple of times to get spasticity out of my fingers. Failure on all counts!

1. Failure number 1: 

1. I received the godawful hand built blue plastic hand and wrist splint for nighttime use that rotted after 3 years and never managed to keep my fingers straight no matter how I tried velcroing them down.

2. Benik w-700 hand splint: 

   It is pretty much impossible to put on one-handed, but this should have been given in the hospital to prevent spasticity in the hand from changing to contractures. 

   How to heat it first, then putting it on, one handed by yourself is quite difficult.

3. This one came from Temu, but can't find it on the site now. It is way too vigorous in opening the fingers and doesn't work on the thumb at all.

   

   
   

4. I expect your doctor and therapists to know EXACTLY what hand splint will  relax your spastic fingers enough. Do they?
