How to Use a Finger Extension Splint (Instructional Tutorial)

Описание: Michelle, Hand Expert and founder of Virtual Hand Care, demonstrates How to Use a Finger Extension Splint to help get your finger straight. In this instructional tutorial, you will learn how to adjust the spring extension splint to increase or decrease the stretch, how to size for the splint, and tips on how to use the splint if you need both DIP and PIP extension.

If you have a finger that is very stiff and you cannot straighten your finger after a finger injury, you could have a flexion contracture. This dynamic finger extension splint may be exactly what you need to decrease the stiffness in your finger joint.

Finger stiffness can get in the way of using your hand with daily activities and hobbies that are most important to you. In fact, the middle joint of the fingers, also known as your PIP joint, is the most difficult joint to get full extension. You may find this splint for finger extension may help you get the range of motion you need!
