Arm Sling For Shoulder Or Elbow Joints

An arm sling is a simple shoulder immobiliser typically manufactured from cotton or a synthetic material to offer comfort to the wearer and is worn following surgery or a trauma related injury such as a trip or fall. The arm sling works by immobilising the arm and shoulder by raising the arm and restricting its movement. The arm sits within a material based sling attached to a strap which loops round the patient’s neck to help elevate the arm. The strap can be adjusted manually depending on the patient’s height and arm length, but a professional will always set this before you leave the hospital to ensure that it is fitted accurately.

The glenoid cavity is deepened by the glenoid labrum (a fibrocartilaginous rim). The joint capsule surrounds the shoulder joint. The rotator cuff muscles around the shoulder are very important for protecting the joint and adding to stability.
