 An injured wrist needs restraint to recover quickly, and a brace helps keep the wrist restricted and comfortable. A good wrist brace applies gentle compression without inhibiting wrist movement and keeps the wrist in a neutral or resting position.
Keeping it neutral minimizes the stress and pressure on the joints and tissues. In addition, restricting actions diminish the chances of reinjuring the wrist.
Hand supports reduce the chances of using a joint or limb in a way that may aggravate the problem more. Wrist splints can help rest muscles, protect joints, and prevent tissue compression, such as nerves.
