Product Description
The North Coast Medical Protective Edema Glove is a specialized compression garment designed to manage hand swelling and fluid retention. Engineered for the right hand in an extra-small size, this glove provides gentle, consistent pressure ranging from 15 to 25 mmHg to help reduce edema caused by surgery, injury, or chronic conditions like lymphedema and venous insufficiency. The over-the-wrist length ensures coverage extends three inches proximal to the wrist crease for comprehensive support. Crafted from a breathable, latex-free blend of nylon and Lycra, the material feels silky against the skin while maintaining the durability needed for daily wear. A standout feature is the external placement of all seams; by keeping the stitching on the outside, the glove prevents skin irritation and the formation of pressure lines on sensitive, edematous tissue. This design is ideal for patients in hand rehabilitation who require tactile awareness alongside therapeutic compression.
