Where can i find a pinky hand splint?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Drug store: You can find pre made splints at drug stores, but before you immobilize your finger for more than a couple of days you should see an orthopedic surgeon to get the problem diagnosed. Some injuries should not be splinted, some should be splinted straight others with a bend at one of the joints.
