Donjoy Respiform Wrist + Thumb brace
Regular price $30.00 Save $-30.00One of the not-so-great side effects of pregnancy is carpal tunnel syndrome or De Quervain's tenosynovitis. They can lead to numbness, tingling, stiffness or pain in the hand and wrist. It causes a constant ache in your wrists and is often more painful at night when you're trying to sleep.
During pregnancy, increased fluid and relaxation of the ligaments in the hand and wrist can cause pressure and compress the nerves and blood vessels. This can cause pregnancy carpal tunnel or De Quervain's tenosynovitis.
This brace from Donjoy is designed to provide the wrist immobilisation and mild compression that may provide the relief you are looking for. Is it high fashion? No. We can't find a brace that is. But it does the job and is perfect to wear at home. If you're looking for something more discrete we also have the X that provides light compression on the wrist for relief.
