How Comfortable Is this Elevating Arm Sling?
Thanks to the continuous design, the weight of your arm is evenly distributed throughout the length of your lower arm, from the tip of your elbow to the ends of your fingers. This decreases the overall pressure on the arm, making it more comfortable to wear than other types of sling. The high-quality padded foam is soft on the skin and offers a great balance between support and comfort.
What Is an Elevation Sling?
An elevation sling like the Promedics Trauma Sling supports the forearm and hand in a raised position, with the fingertips touching the casualty's shoulder. This sling can help control bleeding and minimise swelling in the forearm or hand.
How Should I Wear the Sling?
To achieve optimal results and facilitate recovery, wear the Promedics Post-Operative Trauma Arm Sling with the elbow bent at a right angle. When properly positioned, the person's arm should rest comfortably against their chest, with the fingertips exposed.
What Are the Benefits of Using an Elevation Arm Sling?
One of the key reasons an arm sling is elevated is to help reduce the pooling of fluids in the injured limb, this in turn helps to reduce unnecessary swelling and speeds up the healing process.
