Does this brace work for golfers elbow?
Question by: Al on Apr 2, 2010, 1:26 PM
The Aircast Pneumatic Armband is our most popular brace for people suffering from tennis or golfers elbow.
Innovative Aircast aircell technology enables the Pneumatic Armband to focus compression where it is needed most. Using a single pre-inflated aircell, the Armband concentrates compression directly on the extensor muscle, not around the arm, for more support and less constriction.

I was diagnosed with Lateral Epicondylitis. Do I wear the brace with the pillow on the top of the forearm (if arm crossed over chest it is facing out) or do I wear it with the pillow on the side (aligned with your thumb)?
Question by: suzanne on Apr 9, 2010, 6:32 AM
If your Lateral Epicondylitis or Tennis Elbow is on on the outside of your elbow you would want the Aircast Armband air pillow to be as close to where the elbow pain is located. So you want the pillow on the same side or outside of your elbow.

I recently purchased an aircast for golfers elbow. Could you please provide advise on exactly where i position the aircast/air pouch in relation to my elbow for maximum effectiveness. If it helps my pain is in the flexor pronator area.
Thanks!
Thanks!

You would want to position the pouch on the forearm just distal (towards the wrist) of where the pain is. Make sure the strap is pulled snug.

Should I wear the Aircast when I am doing physical work or activity? I have been wearing it at the end of the day after I ice my elbow.
Thank you.
Thank you.

The Aircast Pneumatic Armband is recommended to be worn while doing activity, it decreases the friction on your tendons while using the muscles. Wear it during upper body activities for best results.

I have been diagnosed with medial epicondylitis. Do I wear the pillow so it is underneath my forearm?
Question by: Gayle on Jul 1, 2012, 6:48 PM
You want the pillow just below (towards the wrist) of where the pain in your elbow is.

Thank you for conatcting DJO Global. If you place your arm bent at a 90 degree angle and the thumb pointing skyward, the aircell goes to the outside of thearm on the muscl just to the outside of the top of the arm just below the bend.

I have the Aircast Armband.....what I do not know is how tight should I draw it?
Thank you.
Thank you.
Question by: Bob Eggleston on Aug 2, 2012, 4:03 PM
You want it to be tight to give some compression, but not so tight it causes numbness, tingling, discomfort or your fingers turning blue
