The Kruse Rehab Carpal Protector is for use before & after surgery or in cases of chronic arthritis i.e. Osteoarthritis, OCD, ligament injuries, arthritis, ED and other assessments.
When dogs suffer injuries in the lower leg joints such as from the carpal joints, there are more often traumatic causes behind this occurrence. In connection with these complex joints being injured, ligaments are often affected in some way. The healing period is long and the dog needs a support around the joint so as to not worsen the injury during this period.
The carpus protector is stretched around the entire leg and fastened with a velcro band in accordance with the stability one wants to achieve with the protection.
Sold in singles - Can be used on either the Right or Left Leg/Carpal Joint Area.
Care: Wash by hand & air dry.
