Can anyone point me towards a wrist support that I can purchase online to wear overnight?

Google just gets me loads of hits and adverts and I would rather a direct recommendation from a user rather than its of marketing **** [self censored]

Thanks

Once this CV madness is over get the surgery.
An easy outpatient job and it will clear it right up.

2nd re getting surgery done as this clears it, the consultant I saw basically said wrist supports didn’t do any thing and not worth wearing.

I did buy a 661 wrist support / protector I think it was about £20 but only used it a couple of times.

Any old wrist support will do - ideally one with a metal insert and not a plastic insert.

Remove the metal insert and bend it so it's straight and holds your wrist neutral and then wear at night. May not help so get a cheap one. Hand/wrist surgery may be one of the first things to restart 'post covid' whenever that is.

I would try and get the ball rolling ASAP re having the op has it took nearly a year to get it sorted via the NHS and then they would only do my right hand as the left wasn’t as bad so still having issues with that.

was back riding the bike about 10wks after op.
