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.

There are three types of humerus fracture injuries based on the location. A break at the top of your arm bone is called the proximal humerus fracture, and the bottom of the bone is called the distal humerus fracture.

Promoting the recovery of long-bone humerus fractures, the clamshell Sarmiento brace compresses your surrounding muscles and soft tissues. Its cylinder-shape provides a stabilizing force equal in all directions (circumferential compression), which limits motion at the fracture site so it can heal correctly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe splint is intended for the treatment of mid-humerus fractures (diaphyseal) or for deep bruises to your humerus bone. The bicep brace can also protect and support your arm after humerus fracture surgery if you have a displaced spiral fracture of the humerus or multiple fractures, for example.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTalk to your doctor as treatment varies depending on the type and severity of the break. Nonoperative therapy usually includes the placement of fracture bracing, a cast, and\/or sling that will be followed by a cylindrical brace (Sarmiento brace) ten days to four weeks later. It may take several weeks to months for your broken arm to fully heal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Sarmiento brace was named after Augusto Sarmiento Rosillo, who first developed successful strategies for fracture bracing that showed advantages of early motion and decreased need for long periods of fracture immobilization. This approach to fracture bracing is known as functional fracture bracing because it rightly reflects the primary advantage of this technique—maintenance of the joint and muscle function while decreasing costs, rehabilitation time, and surgical complications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor humeral condyle fracture care, check out our selection of \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/elbow-pain-treatment\"\u003eelbow braces\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features and Benefits of This Sarmiento Brace\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTwo Free Stockinette Upper Arm Sleeves Included\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor additional comfort and light support, this Sarmiento long humeral splint comes with two stockinette undersleeves.
