A wrist brace is often recommended for those with CTS, especially for acute cases or for those suffering with symptoms overnight. This can help to stabilize the wrist in a comfortable position and ease the nerve compression caused by excessive wrist bending while sleeping. In rare cases, a patient may wear the brace during the day, but movement is quite restricted. How often they choose to wear the brace in the day, therefore, depends on balancing one’s daily activities with the severity of symptoms.
