Q: Where can I buy a wrist brace (for carpal tunnel syndrome)?

All of this working at the computer 10 hours a day is giving me carpal tunnel like crazy.

 

What Chinese stores sell wrist braces? I can't find them anywhere, and I don't know what they're called in Chinese.

 

Also, is there some sort of treatment I can get in China to help with it? I can't be the only person living here with CTS.

 

Thanks.

Oddly enough, if you have a good sized Carrefour near you, check in the sporting goods section.

 

Braces and the such are seen as sport equipment here and not physical therapy per se from what I have seen.

 

I have carpal tunnel as well, and that's where I found mine.

A great place to get a wrist brace would be a website called BraceAbility or BraceAbility.com.  They were very helpful when I was trying to decide which brace I needed.  They also have Braceability wrist supports and hand braces. Good luck and I hope you find what you need!
