Frequently Asked Questions:
Why is the WristWidget so expensive?
The purchase of a WristWidget from this site and Amazon comes with my time and guidance along the entire course of your recovery. I am available by phone and email to answer any questions and help you further understand your symptoms.
How long does the WristWidget last? It is made to last for the entire length of your recovery.
How do you wash the WristWidget? You can hand wash in cold water and hang to dry. You can tumble dry after squeezing- not twisting- the water out. It dries quickly. You can place in a sock or laundry bag and launder but ensure the velcro is not exposed or it will become tangled in the wash. Absolutely no high heat to the WristWidget.
Can I wear it in the water? Yes! It is made to provide continuous support- even in the water.
Can I continue athletic activities with the WW? In general, if your weight bearing tolerance is over 60 lbs., you are safe to perform heavier tasks with the WW without re-injury. Tasks which are risky are: end range rotation with weight and weight bearing: bicep curls with palm up and over 4 lbs of weight; pull ups with palms facing you; weight lifting over your current weight bearing tolerance etc. You can email me specific questions.
How do I know that the WristWidget will help me? The WristWidget is only appropriate for those with pain with weight bearing and show an immediate change in weight bearing tolerance with it on. It is refundable if you do not find it immediately helpful. You should experience support and a change in weight bearing tolerance but it can take up to 12 weeks for full resolve of your symptoms- measured each weak of use.
