Care and Maintenance
To ensure that your de Quervain's wrist brace remains in good condition and continues to provide optimal comfort and support, it is important to follow these care instructions:

- Avoid Snags: When pulling on the brace, try to avoid snatching it as this can damage the stitching or the material.
