Home Made Finger Splint

I have created a home finger splint. Now, it's not the most attractive but it sure holds up ;)

1. two Q-tips and put on each side of the finger


2. some type of padding (pharmacy 'staril padding' best) to put around all of wounded finger.
note: may want to switch steps 1 and 2 if your sleeping with it. Q-tip braces will leave indents!



3. medical type or whatever tape you got! Use tape to wrap fully around in two or more places to keep Q-tips secure and padding on.

 



4. One band-aid. Have half on the top of the splint and half over your knuckle/hand.



It worked lovely for me, slept with it, and there was no pain in the morning! ... till I took it off at least ;) Vwa-la, a finger splint!!!
