Does this brace have a metal support under palm?

Yes it does. It's a little more flexible than the Orthopaedic wrist support I use to sleep. I have severe Carpal Tunnel (bi lateral)

Yes and it's very comfortable. I have been sleeping in these braces for several years.

No it does not. The sleeve itself has no "give" to it and does not stretch, so it supports the ankle and holds it pretty tight. You don't get much movement of the ankle when the brace is all tightened up. No need for hard plastic.

Yes. The one underneath is firmer, but the splint along the top (back of wrist) is not as solid/firm. These highly restrict movement side to side and bending in. However b/c of the softer splint you can somewhat flex you wrist back towards you arm but only 25% of what I could otherwise. Hope that helps!

No. I was not impressed with the "brace"- it really did not add that much stability- much better products available

Yes it does...I unfortunately ordered one at the same time, so now the metal one is on...the plastic one is backup.

There are three (3) adjustments. One is for the thumb. You will be able to set how tightly that you wish the wrap to be. I have found that this is much less binding than other braces. There are two stays alongside the thumb that provide moderate support, but do not bind as I have experienced. I use mine while I am working on the computer. I have had no circulation problem whatsoever.

No, it's plastic. The foam that the brace is made of doesn't give, so for me it digs into skin.

Yes. Actually, this brace is designed to be worn on either hand (thumb opening on both sides of the "sleeve").

It will say firm support. The picture looks like the firm support brace. It also comes with two Differents sets of supports that slide into sleeves along the spine. (Rigid and slightly flexible)

I just tried to put on my brace without using my thumb on the other hand. I had no problem. I believe this will work for you.

I don't think so. I have not tried this but it is not that long, so I believe you need something else. This one is good for daily activities, allows your hand a good deal of flexibility. Futuro carries a brace specially designed for that, though. My step mom has one and she really likes it. Hope this helps.

The brace provides good support. However, if you lift heavy objects, it is important to watch your posture and lifting habits to avoid any injuries.

There is very little movement allowed backwards because of the Velcro support band. I have found this brace to be very beneficial. I particularly notice the pain in the morning if I forget to wear it at night. A very cost effective solution.

With the wrist extension on the bottom it supports the entire left hand to the bottom of the palm. The Right hand however is only supported up to half of the palm when typing. Its not a big deal for me because I can rest my right palm on my desk. It would go well without the extension and a extra even support added for it has legs at the front of the keyboard plus the two different heights on the back. Its very adjustable, I love it!

NO! There is only about an inch of velcro to hold it together and if you have small wrist the wrist support will not stay on. Any time the wrist support touches anything the velcro will come undone. I am looking in kids sizes. There is a site on Amazon (sorry I cannot remember the company) where you can order the braces by the measurement of your wrist. I am going to try these. Good Luck.

Sorry..I find the comfort cool to be more supportive than the brace about which you are asking. I wear the longer Mueller thumb/wrist brace with a more stable support for sleeping. Good luck.

It has two prongs that fit under the seat. I don't like this seat at all. The two braces that run from the top of the seat to the bottom of the seat are fabric and when you lean back in the seat, the fabric stretches so bad that you will end up lying down. I don't use it at all, I am going to throw it away and buy one that has metal braces.
