- Choose the right size: Finger splints come in different sizes, so it is important to choose the right size for your finger. A splint that is too small may not provide enough support, while a splint that is too big may be uncomfortable or ineffective.
- Apply the splint properly: Follow the instructions provided with your splint to apply it properly. Make sure the splint fits snugly but comfortably and does not interfere with circulation.
- Keep the splint clean and dry: To prevent infection, keep the splint clean and dry. Avoid getting it wet or dirty, and follow any cleaning instructions provided with the splint.
- Follow your doctor’s instructions: If you are using a finger splint as part of a treatment plan prescribed by your doctor, be sure to follow their instructions
