Wheelchair gloves shield and protect your hands during wheelchair use. These gloves also help keep your hands stable as you operate a wheelchair. Many wheelchair gloves like the Adult Pushing Cuffs have extra traction tread and other features for pushing manual wheelchairs. If your hands are prone to injury, gloves give you added protection, especially for the CMJ joint. Choosing gloves with the proper fit can help you prevent blisters and calluses from forming from pushing your wheelchair around. Before you start shopping, you should consult your doctor to determine which gloves are more suitable for your medical conditions.
