Shoulder Immobilizer w/Removable Pillow – Rotator Cuff – Sublexion – Shoulder Abduction Sling – Post-Op Shoulder & Arm Brace w/exercise ball. Fits Right or Left Arm. L3660

Fyi: I'm 5'2" & 114 lbs.I am having shoulder surgery in 3 weeks and asked at the pre-op appt if I could have my my post-op sling early, so I can get it all figured out (I don't want to learn when I am in post-op pain!).They said, "Nope, not until you've actually had the surgery," and that I will wake up already wearing a sling.Heck that!Based on reviews, I ordered this and, have to say, I am impressed!It is easy to figure out the various straps. I especially like getting the velcro just right for fit & positioning. Once you have that done, you only need to open & close the buckles.The pillow is not too big for a person of my size. My forearm is completely hidden inside the sling.The padded sleeve on the shoulder strap is nice. I am going to use a shearling seatbelt cover around it instead (previous experience).The material is very soft. It IS warm, which might be a bit uncomfortable for my July-August recovery! Oh, well, first world problems...The ball is removable (it is wrapped in velcro and attaches inside the sling, no losing it!). I find it easy to squeeze.I plan on adding a decorative cover on the front side of the sling (Snoopy fabric, because, Snoopy makes everything better!).I plan on taking this to the hospital on the day of my surgery.

I had my 2nd shoulder surgery in 6 months in August and to keep from being sent home again in a regular sling I bought this one to keep my arm from moving, granted I am a petite female so it's a little big at it's tightest fight, however it still keeps me from being able to move my arm so I'm greatful.

I bought this product because I was left injured in a recent surgery with the inability to hold up my arm. It’s completely paralyzed. I was tired of the sling that they gave me in the hospital because it was flimsy and feel like it didn’t give me the support that I needed. It was also holding my shoulder and an uncomfortable position. Since buying the sling, I’ve been much more comfortable my shoulder pain has almost completely disappeared. I love the part that you wrap around your waist to rest your arm on.

Made for a tiny child's arm. I am 6'2 and the ball holder that's sewn in lands dead center in between my wrist bones. Incredibly tight and uncomfortable.Unable to wear for a full day. Returned immediately.

I used this brace and the 3rd time I noticed the Velcro was starting to pull away from the material

Very comfortable and supportive better than the one that I left the hospital in... I would recommend highly to

I just had rotator cuff and bicep repair surgery. I originally got this as a temporary sling for when my main sling is in the wash. I was looking specifically for one that had snap/buckle closures like my hospital sling, because it's so easy to put on/off. I also tried a different sling, but that wasn't so great. I ended up loving this one so much I now use it as my main sling!!! It is SO soft inside -- unlike the scratchy one the hospital gave me that had seams and stitching inside w/ a rough fabric that ended up chafing and peeling the skin on my arm! This sling is so comfortable. Although the shoulder pad could be a bit more narrow, as that sometimes digs into my neck. I ended up replacing that with the pad from another sling and now it's perfect. The straps are very easy to adjust, and I even cut some of the velcro pieces and rounded the pointy ends so they'd be shorter and less "noisy". My arm is 12" and this sling was a bit too long, but I was able to fold the wrist end back about an inch or two and hold it there with the two velcro pieces at the end. After the first week my surgeon took my pillow off and said I no longer needed it, so I am not using that part of it. Once you get this whole thing adjusted just right for you, you will love it! The only thing I wish was designed differently would be the strap at the wrist where it buckles. The velcro pieces are sewn on. If they were removeable I would be able to fold the "cuff" back further since it was too long for my arm. So I take off a star just for that reason. Otherwise I love it!

This was an absolute lifesaver when I tore my rotator cuff hope to alleviate some of the pain by pulling the arm slightly away from the body
