Suffering from tendonitis or select soft tissue injuries (e.g. mild-to-moderate sprains and strains) can be impossible to deal with if you aren't providing the area with proper protection and support.

Warning for Use
This product is designed to be worn directly on the skin. Inspect your hand, wrist, and forearm before and after each use. If any problems occur related to use of this product, please contact your healthcare provider.
Do not tighten the brace too much as this risks loss of blood flow. Patients with already-compromised blood circulation in their extremities (e.g. those with diabetes or peripheral vascular disease) must be careful and are advised to consult with their doctor before using the brace.
