Splints and braces serve different purposes.
Splint
A splint is typically used to immobilize an injured area so that it can heal properly.
Brace
A brace, on the other hand, is often used to provide support and stability to an area that is healing from an injury.
The type of splint or brace you need will depend on the specific condition you're dealing with. Our trained staff will be able to help you choose the right splint or brace for you.
If you are dealing with a broken bone, we can custom make a splint to fit your specific needs. We'll take into account the type of break you have, the location of the injury, and any other factors that may be relevant. Our top priority is to ensure the comfortability and ease of wearing the splint, so that you can heal as quickly as possible.
The same can be said for a sprained ankle. We will assess the severity of the sprain, its location, and anything else that may contribute to the injury. We want to ensure that treatment is properly worn, and that there is no discomfort.

The main difference between a splint and brace is the use. A brace often has additional features that allow it to be used in more situations than just injury recovery, but they serve much of the same purpose- to hold your body part still after an accident or surgery.
There are a few things to consider when wondering if you can wear a splint with a brace. The first is the type of brace you are using. Some braces, like those for an ankle injury, can be worn with a splint. Others, like a knee brace, may not be able to be worn with a sprint. Another thing to consider is the type of injury you are trying to heal. For some injuries, like a broken bone, it is important to keep the area immobilized. This means that you would not be able to wear a splint with a brace. However, for other injuries, like a sprained ankle, wearing a splint with a brace may help speed up the healing process.
A splint or brace can help to: - immobilize an injured body part - reduce pain - decrease swelling - prevent further injury
1. Don't over-tighten the straps. The straps on your splint should be snug but not too tight. If they are too tight, it can cause discomfort and impair circulation.
2. Don't place the splint over an area that is already swollen or bruised. The splint should be placed on the uninjured side of the body to avoid further irritation.
3. Don't leave the splint on for longer than recommended. Depending on the type of splint, you may only need to wear it for a few hours or overnight. If you leave the splint on for too long, it can cause skin irritation.

Typically a splint will stay on for a few days to weeks, depending upon the severity of the injury.
The answer, unfortunately, is not black and white. It really depends on the individual case and what is causing the pain. In some cases, the pain may be due to an improper fit or incorrect placement of the splint. In other cases, the pain may be caused by the underlying condition that the splint is meant to treat.
There is no definitive answer to whether wrist splints are permanent or not. This is because the decision of whether to keep a splint on permanently or not depends on the individual's situation and needs. Some people may only need to use a splint for a short period of time, while others may need to use one permanently.
