Dr. Arthritis Doctor Developed Shoulder Support/Shoulder Strap/Shoulder Brace & Handbook (Black)

Product Information

These are often custom knee braces that are adjustable to reduce pressure on the inner or outer portion of your knee. In a few cases, where other treatments have not been helpful, surgery to repair, strengthen or replace damaged joints may also be considered.

Shoulder pain - NHS

Arm Sling : Designed to immobilize and support the injured area, preventing movements that might exacerbate the injury. Every shoulder brace is designed with a specific purpose in mind - be it support, stability, compression, or something else. Webbing: Some of the materials, such as those used for the straps, have little to no flexibility or give. If you can’t spend some time each day for your shoulder exercise, this brace can give you equal benefits. The area is smoothed and rounded, and a replacement piece shaped like a hollow half of a ball is placed on the end of the arm bone.Moreover, this particular shoulder brace is highly effective in many medical conditions of shoulders including arthritis, tendonitis, shoulder dislocation, and muscle fatigue.

Osteoarthritis - Treatment and support - NHS

The current recommendation is not to have shoulder replacement surgery within three months of having a cortisone shot in the shoulder. Strengthening the shoulder with arthritis is usually not recommended, as in some instances it could cause more pain. On the other hand, gel or foam padding can enhance comfort, especially if you need to wear the brace for long durations.

These are incorporated into the design of the brace to promote stability in certain areas, while softer, more flexible materials promote range of motion in other areas. Moreover, it comes with a soft and sweat-absorbing inner lining that further assures comfort and an odor-less environment. Special hot and cold packs that can either be cooled in the freezer or heated in a microwave are also available, and work in a similar way. It's also important to avoid sitting in the same position for long periods of time and to take regular breaks so you can move around.
