I have De Quervain’s tenosynovitis flare ups to this day even though I had tendon release surgery almost 8 years ago. I also had a trapeziectomy (removal of trapezium bone) due to arthritis at the same time.
Unfortunately I am one of the very few for which the surgery did not solve the problem entirely & symptoms keep recurring . The only full relief I get is when I put my hand in a cast for a few weeks. (If I have a brace, I usually end up removing !)
The short arm cast is the only thing that provide me relief and I am willing to wear one once or twice a year to provide relief to my never ending issue.
While the original delivery did not contain the correct boot, the correct one was sent very quickly once support was open. The boot is fantastic. So much better than the non inflatable one I had before ordering this one. The arch and heel support is far better than the first boot I had that was not inflatable. Being able to easily adjust the pressure throughout the day has been a god send. I would definitely recommend this boot to anyone in an injury similar to mine.
So far my Rebound Foot Up is working well. It is amazing how such a small device can make such a difference in my gait. We set it up on an outer eyelet to not only hold my toes up, but also pull my foot into a better position. My foot is hitting the floor more in line with the other. My wife noticed immediately the change in my gait and the sounds of my foot steps. I’m not “clomping” around.
We will see in a few weeks how it is working out, but so far I’m thrilled.
