How do i know if i have to wear my wrist splint all day?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Splinting: Usually a splint is prescribed to be worn for 24 hours a day to protect a joint and prevent further injury to it. Ask the clinician who prescribed the splint to tell you how long you need to wear the splint and whether you can remove it for part of the day.
