The number of hours you should wear a wrist brace depends on the specific condition being treated and your healthcare provider's recommendations. Here are some tips for using an Exos Wrist Brace with BOA:
- You should only remove the brace if your healthcare provider tells you to.
- Look for signs like:
- Blisters or sores inside the brace
- Skin problems at the edges of the brace
- Persistent numbness or tingling
- Nail beds that are blue or gray and don't turn pink when elevated
- New or severe pain
- Cracks or breaks in the brace
- The brace becomes too loose as swelling goes down
