Imak gloves seem to be the best. Walgreens carries them as do most drug stores. Also on Amazon. ๐
The same thing happened to me, LeisaHopkinsBrown! I also bought them from Amazon, OMGOSH, they hurt so bad! I couldn't wait to take them off! I gave them to my mother, who also has RA & she loves them! She can also wear the splints; I cannot! Anything on my hands puts pressure on my tender joints & ligaments causing severe pain. Yes I inherited RA from my mother, I couldn't have inherited her height, noooo! Lol. She definitely knows how I feel...Just like all of you do. I'm very grateful for meeting all of you, I have gotten great info from you!
I have expensive compression gloves, Walmart copper, and every invention , since 1990- Gloves of any kind will keep your finger joints warm, unless you believe they are truly helping? Of course, I 'm thinking of changing my name to "Placebo Pete", because everything I try, works for awhile. Faith in anything will get you by, for a little bit. Good luck, and keep those joints comfy.
I ordered mine through Amazon. They are iMAX. Help with joints and swelling.
The gloves do help, no magic but definitely worth the money. Be careful with the sizing, they should fit well. I would try them on before purchasing
