Short Description

Procare Posterior Tibia Fibula Splint is a medical device designed to provide support and immobilization to the lower leg, particularly the tibia and fibula bones. The splint is used to treat various lower leg injuries, including fractures, sprains, and strains. It is made from lightweight materials and is easy to apply and adjust, making it a popular choice among medical professionals and patients alike.
The splint features a rigid outer shell that wraps around the back of the leg, providing a high degree of support and stability to the affected area. It also features soft padding on the inner surface, which ensures a comfortable fit and prevents irritation or rubbing against the skin. The splint can be easily adjusted using Velcro straps, allowing for a customized fit that accommodates swelling or changes in the shape of the leg as it heals.
One of the main advantages of the Procare posterior tibia fibula splint is its ability to provide effective immobilization of the lower leg without interfering with the patient's mobility. Unlike other types of casts or braces, which can limit movement and cause discomfort, the splint allows patients to perform simple tasks such as walking or light exercise while still protecting the affected area from further injury.
The splint is also relatively easy to clean and maintain, as it can be easily removed for cleaning or adjustment if needed. This makes it a convenient option for patients who need to wear the splint for an extended period of time.
