This device works very well. I work in healthcare and am constantly washing my hands. I do not have to worry about getting this device wet. The aluminum/blue foam device gets wet and causes wet skin breakdown when worn for long periods of time. The only complaint that I have about this device is that it rides right across the site of my injury (see photos). That often results in slight swelling and more pain. Also, I felt that the device needed adjustment to better straighten my finger. So I tried several methods to heat the plastic and bend it into a better shape. I even tried boiling it. No luck. The shape seemed to stay the same. Also, I measured my finder as instructed, and ordered a device. It was too small and I had to order a much large device. Not sure if I did the measuring correctly. So pay attention when sizing.

I injured my finger back in Oct. 2021 (typical mallet finger injury) and nursed it with many different splints over the course of a month and half (including the aluminum ones with the blue foam stuff). Nothing seemed to help, not to mention that the material they were made of got dirty and the foam fell apart really easily. Additionally, the foam would stay wet, was uncomfortable, and useless after a few days. I initially liked that these splints were simple, lightweight, and discrete (I got tired of people asking me what was wrong). This finger splint was very comfortable to wear and I did not have to remove it to wash my hands, etc. Within about 2 weeks I noticed a considerable improvement in the finger and after a month, the finger was nearly back to normal. Unfortunately, I stopped wearing it since it was getting better, so I never reached 100% "normal", but I believe that had I kept using it, my finger would be completely healed at this point.

They work for bent fingers to help keep them straight.

Nicely fit. My finger is in the advanced stage of heberden's node and the size 7 fits. The other day, I was cooking a hot stew with this plastic ring on my finger, then suddenly I noticed it was GONE! I was in a panic. A scary thought grabbed my mind that the plastic ring slipped off the finger and jumped into the boiling pot along with chicken and vegetables... Immediately and frantically, I stirred it with a paddle looking for my lost ring before it melt. I also looked for it in the garbage bin in vain. Luckily, I saw it on the floor!!! To me, it seems it fits okay when the finger is dry, but it gets loose when wet. So, just be careful!
