As part of the new collection of sports braces from Push Sports the PSB Thumb Brace has been re-designed to offer the same functionality but with improved design features. This new thumb support is designed to relieve pain that occurs in overstretching of the ligaments in Skier’s Thumb. The thumb support brace stabilises and protects the middle thumb joint (MCP-1) while allowing freedom of movement in the remaining thumb and wrist joints. Skier’s thumb refers to the fact that this injury is often seen in skiers who fall while holding on to their ski poles. Despite renewed designs for ski poles, Skier’s thumb remains a common injury. This type of injury is also seen in other sports, especially those that use a stick or ball, such as hockey or basketball and also in Handball. A fall on the hand, usually from a bicycle or motorcycle (in which the thumb gets stuck behind the handlebars), is another common cause of skier’s thumb.
