Black (or dark) colour - they will get dirty - if you get the flesh/peach colour ones these will start to look horrid fast.
True!
But if you were on Bushcare they would ONLY give you peach/flesh colored ones. They would be WAY to tight and they absolutely would not last more than 90 days because the veclro strips were way to short and narrow. Terrible workmanship.
But under Bushcare I could go to the medical supply store and pick out any braces I wanted and they would bill Medicaid for the price. So that is what I used to do. I would bebop on down to the Medical Supply Store and pick out some properly made braces and icepacks and Medicaid would pay for them. But after Obamacare passed I got a letter in the mail saying Medicaid would no longer pay for "prosthetic devices" and that I could just go suck it.
I have tried many kinds of wrist braces and these are the best kinds I have found:
Futuro Reversible Splint Wrist Brace
L (Large)
model # 10765
I hafta buy them myself. Sometimes certain stores have them but they are cheaper and easier to get online. Google is your friend
They have a website at
www.futuro.com but I don't know if I ever went there. I bought my last batch at some other random medical website. These last me around 2 years each time if I remember to remove them every time I wash my hands. Maybe 1.5 years otherwise. YMMV.
I think my last ones lasted 3 years but that is because for the whole last year they were held together with 10 pieces of Scotch(tm) Tape. I would just replace the tape each month as it fell off. haha I looked ridiculous.
One side always falls apart before the other side but it is different each time. YMMV.
The one thing better than wrist braces is getting yourself a keyboard with springloaded keys. Springs are natural shock absorbers. The only kind of keyboard you need to worry about is one with Cherry Red switches (or an equivalent if anyone ever made an equivalent one).
Do not get Cherry Blue, Green, Clear, Black, Brown. They are all antiergonomic and will just cause you pain and damage for nothing. Those switches are not made for your benefit. Those switches are made for giving Cherry and keyboard manufacturers free $$$$ for
their benefit.
If you use 3 different computers then switch them ALL to Cherry Red switch keyboards and force yourself to type on them PROPERLY without smashing your fingers down into the bottom of the keyboard. This will take you 3 days to 3 weeks but it will save you a lifetime of pain and surgeries and PAIN and nerve damage and PAIN and having your life ruined and PAIN and tendonitis and PAIN and RSI and PAIN and CRPS etc. etc. etc. It will also help prevent those horrible gross scars that carpal tunnel surgeons inflict on people.
You don't want to end up like me.
