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. Between is a humerus shaft fracture.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0011\/7958\/2517\/files\/what-is-a-humerus-fracture_1024x1024.jpg?v=1580249119\" alt=\"What is a humerus fracture?\" style=\"float: none;\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSarmiento Brace for Humeral Fracture\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA Sarmiento brace is used to stabilize a fracture in your upper arm while leaving your elbow free, allowing motion in your forearm and hand. 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=\"\/en-pt\/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.
