Elbow Brace

It can be difficult for people with elbow pain to move their elbow. In these cases, wearing a splint or compression brace would help restrict the movement and prevent pain or discomfort. In addition, this device can be helpful in alleviating tendon and muscle strain in the affected area. The doctor tends to recommend this remedy when the injury is triggering severe pain with movement. An elbow brace is most useful during the first 6 weeks of treatment. Keep in mind to put the brace 6 to 10 inches from the elbow joints so that it can be nearer the hand than the elbow. [2]
