Do you think I can wear gloves over this? I work in a hospital, sometimes have to wear gloves. I'd like to not have to take off the brace every time.

The brace is rather large and I ware mine when I'm sleeping because it is called a "night brace".

Yes it is better than the one the hospital makes they use a plastic mold and it fall apart

Perhaps with a very large size of gloves, but hospital gloves would be likely to tear over the thumb.

You probably could if the gloves are large. Actually it sounds like a good idea to wear gloves over them to keep them from getting dirty.

More or less. I wear two braces, I put them both on each night. You can get used to it. The alternative is not having any brace at all, and suffering pain.

I wouldn't say "easily." It's not super cumbersome, but you'd realize you're wearing it for sure. It's not heavy, but it's not light either--bulky. I would not consider this a brace. It's to be used when you need to cool down when you're in pain--and for that it does a good job.

You can wear it during the day but it is very bulky and restrictive. You will not be able to use your hand or fingers to do much of anything. I suggest using the Mueller wrist brace for working.

This is probably best addressed by your surgeon or physical therapist! My best guess is it's OK, however I am not involved personally in your care and not the last word.

I would say yes. I mostly wear mine to work. I'm a CNA so at work I'm on my feet with lots of getting up and down and lifting. I'm not a runner, but it's a really nice brace

I don't think so. I have not tried this but it is not that long, so I believe you need something else. This one is good for daily activities, allows your hand a good deal of flexibility. Futuro carries a brace specially designed for that, though. My step mom has one and she really likes it. Hope this helps.

I've been wearing mine continuously for weeks and have only noticed a little discomfort when my knee is fully bent (e.g. sitting cross legged). Since my knee is a little loose now after I injured it, I wouldn't be able to run. Having said that, my only concern is that your knee will probably get really warm while wearing the brace and running.

The brace is relatively comfortable. Depending on how you position it, it may dig into your abdomen a bit, but that would be true of any brace. I do like the double closure system; it feels like I'm getting more support this way.It looks washable, but to be honest, I haven't tried putting it in the laundry. I wear it about 6-8 hours/day, and not when I'm doing anything too active that would make me sweat into it.

You can still feel through the gloves, but I don't think he could bite through them. I am an electrician and use them on cold mornings or when I am working with live electrical panels. You may consider a pair of leather cuffs for your wrists?

Yes. My wife loves it. She says it feels more like a support wrap than a brace.

It is a bit difficult to use without the brace with the stronger bands. The bands do break in and get easier to use. If you plan on using the stronger bands I do recommend the wrist brace. The wrist brace is quite cheap and we'll worth it when using the stronger bands.

You can! However, I ran into the problem with wrist support with these. The gloves themselves were extremely snug (a size smaller wouldn't have fit at all) but the wrist wrap was still extremely loose. There's only a small amount of velcro and it's not a one size fits all kinda deal. So I wouldn't recommend them. I ended up paying a little extra money for the Everlast gel wraps and they're amazing for just hitting the bag and as a "wrap replacement" under the gloves. If you're doing small sessions they're perfect, for heavy hitting you want the support of a full wrap, that's why we still use em because nothing beats it lol. Hope this helps!

I think you can, as I wear mine under light gloves. I work as a carpenter griping hammers, levels ,wood, and other tools all day long and forget I have it on.

As far as trigger finger and my experience-------------no. I had my finger corrected with outpatient surgery. Very simple procedure---works fine now. I use the gloves for relief of the aching I have in my hands from the over use in performing my job. They worked for me in that way---but not for my trigger finger.

Greetings; I returned a pair of Med. size because they were way too small for my husband. I got a large which were still too small for him so I use them and to answer your question, they have "given" a little, but are still on the "small/snug" side for me. I don't think there really is enough flexibility in these to allow for a proper fit in time. The manufacturer of these and so many other work gloves I "test" need to do a better job of sizing for the US customer base. Hope this helps, all best.

The gloves will not slip because you velcor them around your wrist. If your HRM has to be worn at a specific place on the wrist it my be uncomfortable to place it under the Velcro since it's tight around the arm.
