Do you have a preferred carpal splint for...

Post by lehughes »

I've got a sled dog with an ulnar carpal flexor gd II tear. I'm looking for a fairly rigid splint that I can prevent full extension on, then progressing to a softer splint. Do you have any companies that you prefer for carpal splints?

I find that the Therapaw custom Carpoflex X with a thermopastic piece (you’d have to heat, cut and mold) is still the most versatile to take you through all of the stages in this scenario.

And they’re great to talk to to walk you through.

Cheers,

Laurie

If it were a more permanent or more debilitating issue, I'd go with Hero - http://www.goherogo.com
