Swan Neck Ring Splint

thingiverse

This splint features a swan neck design with added support on either side for ultimate comfort. Its versatile nature allows it to be worn in multiple ways, providing various levels of stability and protection. When positioned with the rings pointing upwards, it effectively limits excessive finger joint extension. Furthermore, rotating the splint enables complete immobilization of the affected finger. To determine the ideal size, accurately measure the US ring size at the joint you wish to support, taking into account both measurements above and below the knuckle. Notably, these two sizes may differ; in this case, select the larger measurement for optimal results. For those seeking a precise ring sizer, a readily available option can be found online or acquired at a local craft store.
