Help for carpal tunnel and tendonitisAug 31, 2010 I purchased this brace because my doctor specifically recommended it. I was diagnosed with possible carpal tunnel, and possible tendonitis.
I sized the brace using the measurements on the back of the box, and it fits great.
Sometimes the brace pinches a bit at the base of my thumb, which is uncomfortable, but I just loosen it for a while and it's fine.
All in all, though, my wrist feels supported and the pain disappears while I'm wearing it.

Carpal Tunnel PainSep 15, 2009 This is an absolutely necessary product. I fyou have carpal tunnel and wake up at night in pain this will stop it immediately.
It worked for me. If you are at a computer buy this product anyway. Ii will help you prevent carpal tunnel and maybe avoid surgery.
But one for each hand.

2nd pairJun 12, 2009 This is my second pair. My first pair I used for about 3-4 years before needing replacement. I spend 8 hours a day typing and suffer from carpal tunnel. I wear these every night while sleeping and they reduce my symptoms dramatically. If I forget to wear them for a few days, I notice a difference. My only complaint is that they are awkward to wear while doing everyday activities, that is why I wear them while I am sleeping.

The best of the bunchJan 22, 2009 Ive tried Mueller, Futuro, and McDavid, and after trying them all out, im buying myself another pair of Futuros. Ive tried em all and these are definitely the best. they are the most stable, and more importantly, last the longest. As someone who needs to use these just to function, quality is VERY important. I cant stand having to buy new ones every few months. Muellers last about 6 months to a year. McDavids are putrid and last 2-3 months. Futuros though can last years and years if you use them right and keep them in good shape. Its worth spending a few extra bucks on these than to save a little on the McDavids or Muellers. The 3rd strap especially is awesome at keeping the arm stable and straight.

Excellent support, but needs a middle sizeMar 28, 2008 This is an excellent stabilizing brace -- but sizing can be an issue.
My husband nearly broke his wrist; fortunately it was "only" a serious sprain. He was told to wear a brace for 2-3 weeks, so off we trotted to the store to find one.
A few years ago, he'd had a bad bout with carpal tunnel, and was very pleased with the right-handed version of the Futuro model. Alas, the store didn't have a left-handed model, so he bought another brand. It wasn't two days before I scurried to Amazon to buy this replacement. (The other one was made largely of plastic, with open spaces and a total lack of support around his wrist, where he needed it. It also got stinky in a hurry. But they cost about the same; go figure.)
This one works well because it supports the entire wrist, not just a couple of spots. It doesn't chafe, either, despite the 12 hours a day he spent at the keyboard. ("My client has a deadline, honey!" ) And, based on the wear he gave the one for the other wrist, a few years back, it holds up. Hopefully you won't need to wear this for long, but it's good to know it won't fall apart.
The only problem is that he is definitely a "medium" and the small/medium is just a tiny bit too small, and the company's guidelines aren't very helpful. If you're close to the numbers they have for "medium," order the next size up! I wish they made a true "medium"!
