PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a supporter worn in finger joints in which the swelling and deformation due to Heberden nodule and Bouchard nodule being a degenerative finger arthrosis of fingers are covered, and an affected area in the convalescence is supported and a thermal effect is enhanced and effects such as the prevention of pain are ensured.SOLUTION: A supporter for finger joints is a cylindrical supporter having a length from a finger tip to the first joint and comprising a flexible material. The supporter is characterized as follows: one place of a rectangular opening part is provided in a bent portion of the joint of the inside of the finger of the supporter, and thereby a movable range is widened; an arcuate elastic material is provided oppositely to the X-shape on both sides of left and right in the outer circumferential surface of the supporter; the part where the arcuate elastic material is brought into abutment is configured to fix the arcuate elastic material with a linear elastic material, and a fulcrum shaft of the joint in bending and straightening of the first joint or the second joint of the fingers is formed; and thereby the maintenance of the fulcrum shaft becomes possible and the transverse deformation of the finger is improved. |
