Removable Splints for Broken Ankles

Ankle fractures are one of the most common fractures of the lower limb, especially in older women and young men and are usually treated by immobilizing the joint in a plaster cast to protect the fracture. Because of the fracture and the subsequent immobilization period, people often experience pain, stiffness, weakness and swelling at the ankle, and have a reduced ability to participate in activities. Completely expose the injured limb. Remove clothing on the affected extremity, or warn the patient that it may have to be removed with scissors after the splint is placed.

Ankle sprains refer to the injury of one or more ligaments in the ankle. There are four ligaments in the ankle, and these bands of tissue connect one bone to another and provide stability. They work together to limit the side-to-side movement of the ankle, especially when the foot is pointed downwards. When the ligaments are pushed beyond the boundaries of their normal mobility and they are stretched or partially or completely torn, an ankle sprain occurs.

Tynor Ankle Splint is designed to immobilize, support and stabilize the ankle joint in injury, or offer protection to people prone to ankle injuries. Rigid exoskeleton shell design gives better protection and control of the inversion or aversion of the ankle.

Ankle Sprains Safety: The Advantages of Ankle Braces

When the injure in the ankle or participate in an activity that requires fast-paced weight changes, extra support can ensure the ankle stays protected. This is where an ankle brace comes in. There are a variety of ankle braces and it can select one based on the level of injury or amount of support desired. Physical therapist or physician may recommend a specific ankle brace. An ankle brace is an assistive and/or protective device made of stretchy or stiff fabric that features metal or plastic supports. Some ankle braces are pulled on while others lace up or use Velcro straps. Those offering the least protection are pull-on braces that do not feature reinforcements. These brace types are instead used for compression, helping to minimize inflammation following injury. More supportive ankle braces that use reinforcements on either side of the ankle are used after injury or to prevent injury.

A brace is easy to fit, can be worn frequently (washable), can easily be pulled tighter and is skin-friendly. There is a myth that a brace makes the joint stiffer and muscles weak. A brace merely prevents unusual movements. Ankle injuries are defined by the kind of tissue bone, ligament, or tendon that's damaged. The ankle is where three bones meet the tibia and fibula of the lower leg with the talus of the foot. These bones are held together at the ankle joint by ligaments, which are strong elastic bands of connective tissue that keep the bones in place while allowing normal ankle motion. Tendons attach muscles to the bones to do the work of making the ankle and foot move, and help keep the joints stable.

Best Types of Finger Splints

A splint is a device that supports and protects body parts that have been injured, such as a broken bone or muscle sprain. A splint may also be worn after surgery. A splint is sometimes called a half-cast because it does not wrap around an entire body area like a cast does. A splint is used to decrease pain and stop or limit movement so you can heal. Unlike casts, caregivers can easily adjust a splint if you have swelling or pain after an injury.

Different Types of Splints

Splints come in many shapes and sizes. A splint canbe as simple as buddy taping (fingers taped together) for a finger injury. Other splints are large enough to support your hips or thighs. Some splints are made of plastic or fabric. The fit of these splints can be adjusted with hook and loop straps, buckles, or laces. These splints can be taken off to wash, rest your injury, or do exercises that caregivers suggest. Other kinds of splints are made of hard plaster or fiberglass. Hard splints stay on all the time. Caregivers may adjust or remove your hard splint as you heal. Ask your caregiver for more information about the different kinds of splints.

Splinting

Static splinting: Static splints prevent you from moving an injured area. You might get a static splint right after an injury to relieve pain and reduce swelling. Depending on your injury, you may get a cast after the swelling goes down.

Dynamic splinting: Caregivers may switch you to a dynamic splint as you begin to heal. Dynamic splints allow you to have increased movement of the joints that have had limited range of motion.

Our Price : Rs 79

Serial splinting: During serial splinting, caregivers change your splint once a week, for 6 weeks or more. Each splint change allows more movement in your joint.
