A **wrist brace** is a supportive garment designed to stabilize and protect the wrist joint by limiting its range of motion. Typically constructed from breathable fabrics like neoprene or nylon, these braces often feature rigid **internal splints** or stays made of metal or plastic to keep the wrist in a neutral position. They are commonly used to alleviate pain and promote healing for conditions such as **carpal tunnel syndrome**, tendonitis, or sprains, while allowing for full movement of the fingers to maintain daily functionality.
