FIXX glove
I am considering wearing this at night pre contracture. I'm confused as to what one to get. On the website there is something about the rail being on the inside on one and then being on the outside on another. Which did you find to be the best?

Re: FIXX glove
I suspect it's personal preference. I have a Fixxglove that I no longer use. I purchased it for the left hand with the aluminium plate on the palm or inside. Then some years later I started occasionally using the same glove on the right hand which means the plate is on the dorsal or top side. I think maybe I preferred it on the top. But the main thing I found at the time was to bend slightly the fingers of the plate, so that some tolerable degree of comfort was achieved to be able to wear the glove overnight.
I no longer wear it so it's languishing in the cupboard. I disliked the temporary finger stiffness it can induce that is apparent in the morning if worn overnight.
Other users on here have posted about using a popsicle or ice-lolly stick as a cheaper and yet still functional alternative. https://www.dupuytren-online.info/Forum_...ace-0_2313.html
