Choose a shoulder brace according to the type of injury

 Choosing a Shoulder Support brace can be complicated. Because everyone has a different body shape, the size of the Shoulder Support is difficult to determine correctly, and because most of the size of the Shoulder Support is only determined by measuring the bust, it is difficult to find the perfect size.

Clavicle or posture related injuries

If your work requires you to spend most of your time at your desk or bending over to work at a computer, you may be injured by your posture. Continuous and long-lasting "sagging" can cause damage to the shoulder joints. In addition to physical therapy to strengthen the core, upper back and shoulders, looking for postural support can also help you get injured.

Generally, the support used for clavicle injury or posture correction is usually made of elastic fabric, such as elastic. Finding a brace with proper padding or possibly wider straps can improve your comfort during recovery.

Arthritis or severe stiffness

Many people—athletes and non-athletes—have shoulder arthritis. The shoulders of the elderly may also be extremely stiff. Usually, these problems are symptoms of inactivity for a period of time, and then difficulty and pain when trying to move again.

In addition to physical therapy, one type of brace that may help treat these injuries is a hyperthermia strap, which allows blood to flow around the joints and helps maintain your range of motion. It should be noted that heat and shoulder support are both important for this type of injury, so please note that some products only offer one of these options, not both.

Rotator cuff or joint injury

Compression is the key to finding a suitable brace for rotator cuff or shoulder joint injuries. When choosing your Shoulder Support, you should consider how you want or need to do this kind of injury and the severity of your injury.

If you have suffered a minor injury, a simpler stretch fabric support will provide gentle pressure, reminding you not to use excessive force to prevent the injury from getting worse. If your injury is a little serious, use stronger supports, such as neoprene shoulder supports or professional stretch fabric shoulder supports, to better maintain the stability of your injury. For serious injuries, your healthcare provider may recommend keeping your shoulder immobilized for a long time to prevent further injury.

When choosing the type of Besttone shoulder brace that best suits you, it may be important to understand the severity of your injury. Initially, you may want to take care of yourself at home, so here are some useful questions to help you determine the extent of the injury:

Can you move your arms normally? When you try to exercise normally, is your shoulder excessively stiff or painful?

Do you feel unusual? For example, do you believe that your shoulder might pop out of the socket?

Can you complete daily activities without pain or stiffness? In other words, are your shoulders strong enough to do what you usually do?

If your answer to any other questions is yes or unsure, then resting the wound and using ice cubes in the area may help. Using a brace to stabilize the injury is also a wise step. However, some injuries require medical attention. If you experience any of the following symptoms, please see a doctor as soon as possible, which will help you recover.
