DonJoy Sully Shoulder Brace - All Questions

This shoulder brace is intended for shoulder dislocation and should instability. It will help stabilize the shoulder and reduce the risk of shoulder dislocation, but it is by no means going to provide absolute protection as with any shoulder brace of this kind. Since the brace is made out of neoprene it is stretchy and will work well for baseball. You can control the amount of support or limit your range of motion with the strapping system as well. You should be able to move fairly normally in the brace, but keep in mind that in order to stabilize and protect your shoulder the brace needs to limit some range of motion.

This brace is fairly easy to get on and off so it should work well for your father. It will provide some nice support and stability to his shoulder and the warmth of the material will ease some pain as well. Fishing and other light activities should be just fine in this shoulder brace.

Hello Mike!

Thank you for your questions!

I'll answer your questions regarding the DonJoy Sully Shoulder Support below:

Will this brace protect against another dislocation?
- The DonJoy Sully Shoulder Support will not prevent another dislocation, but it does lower the chances of it occurring again.

Will I be able to throw and swing a bat while wearing the brace?
- You will be able to swing and throw, however any support will hinder range of motion.

Will I be able to catch a pass over my head?
- Again yes, however any support will hinder range of motion. Because this is a light support, the hindrance will be significantly less than other shoulder supports.

The DonJoy Sully Shoulder Stabilizer will help provide your daughter with controlled range of motion while being active. It is to stabilize and restrict motion of the shoulder, in the direction of her shoulder instabilities, while still allowing her to be active and participate in sports. This brace is a great option for basketball players. As far as measuring for a female you will want to measure her across her bust to get the optimal fit for her.
