Frequently Asked Questions

What is a finger Gutter splint used for?

A finger Gutter splint is like a bendable bandage used to support and steady your fingers, hands, or wrists if they are hurt or broken. It helps stop them from moving too much so they can get better.

Do splints help the finger heal after an injury?

Yep! Wearing splints can give your fingers a break and let them rest. Doctors might even say to wear one at night for a few weeks. Doing this helps your finger get better. They might also suggest easy exercises to keep your finger moving.

Can the trigger finger heal by itself?

Usually, yes! Trigger fingers often get better on their own after a little time. But if it's really stuck, doctors might need to do a small operation. Doing exercises and wearing a splint can make it easier to deal with.

How tight should finger splints be?

The splint should be just right, not too loose or too tight. It needs to keep your finger straight but not squish it too much. Only take it off if your doctor says so.
