While you’ve likely heard of labrum tears, you may be wondering, what is a SLAP tear? SLAP tears are actually just a term used for labrum tears, covering a wide range of all shoulder injuries. Superior Labrum, Anterior to Posterior tears (SLAP tears), happens when injury or overuse occurs, making it difficult and painful to move your upper arm and shoulder. If you’re experiencing persistent shoulder pain, pain while raising your arm above your head, popping noises, or a feeling that your shoulder may pop out, it’s very likely you’re dealing with a SLAP tear. Treating a SLAP tear will depend on the severity, but it’s usually best to explore non-surgical options first. This will include physical therapy, stretching, and allowing your shoulder to heal by resting and avoiding painful activities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCan I Relieve Rotator Cuff Pain at Night with This Compression Brace?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThanks to the comfortable materials this sleeve is made of, the brace can be worn with ease both day and night.

As a youth posture correcting brace, a child should wear it for 30-minute increments to begin with and gradually increase use to three-hour intervals.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eHow do I know which size to get? \u003c\/b\u003eYou can use fabric or a flexible tape measure to find the circumference of your child’s chest measured at the bottom of the sternum. The brace is available in sizes X-small and small, fitting circumferences ranging from 20 inches to 30 inches.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eHow do I adjust the brace to make it smaller or bigger? \u003c\/b\u003eTo adjust the fit, undo the fastener closures and pull the straps tighter until a desired level of support is reached. Since the straps are in the back, your child will need assistance to adjust the brace as he or she will not be able to reach the straps.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eHow do I put this brace on my child? \u003c\/b\u003eUnfold the brace and lay it flat to identify the left and right straps. Undo the fastener on the ends of the straps. Feed the end of the right strap through the right side of the plastic triangle buckle and attach the closure. Repeat with left strap. The brace should now be in a “figure-8” shape. Slip the brace on your child like you would to put on a backpack. The triangle buckle should point down and the shoulders should be gently pulled back. If your child experiences any pain or discomfort, adjust the brace by loosening the straps.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eCan I wash the brace\u003c\/b\u003e?
