This boxer’s brace is perfect for those difficult to treat boxer’s fractures. A fracture to the fourth or fifth metacarpal bone is called a boxer’s fracture because it is often sustained through punches (but not only). This comfortable neoprene splint offers top of the line support and comfort. It has certified to help treat this specific injury. This metacarpal splint has an internal bendable aluminum that can be molded to the hand, to hold your exterior digits in whatever the desired position. It will keep your fingers still, while the straps will help you determine the exact level of flexion desired for those fingers and joints. When received, simply follow the instructions shown on the packaging to quickly strap on the metacarpal brace. If you have any issues at all, reach out the the American Heritage Industries team, and they will walk you through the problems (whether sizing or instructions related).

I have a large thin womanâs hand/tiny wrist. I may have done ok with size large. I bent the metal at the fingers per doctor order and at the wrist for comfort. I was so relieved to get this splint.
Sizing chart is way off I gave it 2 stars only because I am unable to evaluate the effectiveness of the product. I used two different sizing charts, the one in on of the questions/responses and the one in the pictures that are provided. The one in the pictures said to measure the palm (i believe) and I did this. My daughters (7 yr old) palm just made the cut so I figured this would work. It is WWWWAAAAYYYY too big. I would suggest if you are considering buying this that your hand meets the big end of the…
