A frog splint is a light weight, high cushioned, sleek and simple brace that helps the injured finger by providing it the right alignment of the inter- phalangeal joints. This support helps the finger to maintain is optimal functions. 

An injured finger requires to be immobilized so that it can recover quickly. A frog splint helps the finger to be immobilized ensuring that the other fingers movements are not restricted. It is also extra malleable so that it can be shaped for a good grip.

It is easy to wear, well ventilated, easy to clean, leaves no bad odour, has enough breathing room and is hypo allergic. All these features ensure that the patient does not feel any kind of uneasiness while wearing the frog splint.

We can also say when the tip of the finger gets injured due to sports injury, or jammed your finger in the door.  This splint is designed in such a way that it supports the dip joint in hyper extension, while the movement of the PIP joint does not get restricted.

The splint that we make at GPC Medical ensures that the patient suffers no discomfort of any kind while wearing it. It is coated with an aluminum body which can be bent and is customized. It is designed in the most practical way to immobilize only the hyper extension of DIP joint. The inbuilt hook loop fasteners help to easily wear and remove it while giving it an excellent grip.

This is helpful in achieving the required changes in the connective tissue for positive results. Wearing of the Finger Extension splint helps the finger to heal much faster.
