Guest guest Posted June 28, 2006 Report Share Posted June 28, 2006 Hi ! My husband sometimes has to do repairs in mines and they had given him compression " sleeves " to wear to avoid particles of dust etc. working up past his gloves. They are tight elasticized tubes and I would never have believed the relief I get from slipping them over my hands and wrists when I'm having trouble with them. It's an instant relief from pain. They're really tight and offer support as well as pain relief. I'm sure they work on the same principal as compression gloves. Don't be afraid to try them even though your hands are swollen - that's when I think you'll appreciate them the most. Good luck.
