Vive Arm Sling for Shoulder Injury & Surgery Recovery - Waterproof Mesh Shower Sling Immobilizer for Rotator Cuff Support - Right Left Arm for Men & Women - Stabilize Elbow, Wrist, Thumb, Dislocation

I bought this based off of others in the shoulder replacement Facebook website that I attend, saying that this was the perfect thing to use in the shower during recovery from your shoulder surgery. I loved it because it allowed me to feel confident while showering that if I slipped or fell, my arm was still safe. It dries very quickly and I used it all the time and I have zero requests from buying it.

I was allowed to shower 3 days after I was able to take the original bandage off from my rotator cuff surgery. I didn’t want to get my surgical sling wet so I had purchased this mesh sling in advance. It was easy to get on and I strongly recommend using this. You might think you can shower without it but this keeps your arm in place so you don’t accidentally move it wrong while showering or bathing. Dried quickly and washes well. Tips: 1. use a hand towel to dry yourself off. It’s lighter in weight than a bath towel. 2. Get a bidet attachment for your toilet for use on your non-surgical side. Game changer Life saver. 3. Def sleep in a recliner if you can or borrow one. I used one for the full 6 weeks.

I recently had total, reverse shoulder replacement surgery. As anyone who has had shoulder surgery knows, you are required to wear a VERT bulky sling for at least a month. However most surgeons allow showers after a few days provided you hold your operated arm down straight by your side. My dominant arm was operated on and I was afraid I would forget and try to use it in the shower. This lightweight mesh brave was perfect. I felt very safe and very comfortable. It even has a little strap to comfortable keep your arm from sliding forward. Very well made. I wouldn’t be surprised if I use it sometimes in the days right after the surgeon tells me I can stop wearing the monster post-surgical sling. I intend to tell him about it.

This was very helpful during my recovery from surgery on my shoulder. Drys quickly after hanging to dry. It's lightweight and soft. No one likes to feel like an invalid being completely reliant. This helped me feel some independence ... less of a burden

I love this mesh sling. It is easy to wear and great for any activity. It is a must have when coming to arm support and showering.

I'm a month out from a total shoulder replacement and must wear a sling for 2 more weeks, but am allowed to swim now that my scar is healed. This sling, now that I've sewn a little thumb piece on it so it doesn't slip, is perfect. The water flows through it and it dries fast. Also, when the fancy heavy sling I got from the hospital just gets too darned hot and sweaty, this gives me a cool-off break. Note: it DOES come with an inner strap to hold it in place. But I'm a large woman (the hospital gave me an XL sling,) so that doesn't work for a larger person. It would stay in place just fine for a regular or small person. Also, they had enough sense to put the velcro strap adjustment on the front side of the sling. My fancy $200 hospital sling has the stupid adjustment on the back, so you have to keep taking it on and off to adjust the strap length. If you had to wear this for a long period of time, the strap, which does not have padding, would probably start to dig into your opposite shoulder and neck. But it's perfect for me and a great price.

easy to use and dries quickly. It's been very helpful for me.

The sling is good for taking showers. The velco on the adjustment strap did not stick after the first shower, I had to come up with something to hold it so it didn't slip through and allow my arm to drop. I used a plastic snack clip to hold it.

Daughter suffered a broken elbow which needed to be in fixed sling 24h a day. purchased two of these slings for wet activities. Perfect for going in the sea, pool and showering. Dry quickly ready for next use.

Lo usamos para el baño y súper recomendado, tiene fractura en húmero y le sirve muy bien, sostiene, puede limpiar su brazo y no se mueve. Se ve un poco delgado por lo mismo del material que es red sin embargo es muy estable y funcional.

Really light confortable perfect for me

Es muy cómodo y tiene buen soporte; además no acalora el brazo cuando lo usas sin férula o yeso. No es nada estorboso. Me ha funcionado muy bien para una lesión de manguito rotador.

I've had my shoulder replaced and this made showering much easier as it takes the weight. It's easy to get washed well without removing or slips over your head easily enough if you want to remove it. It dries quickly. It's a little fiddly to put on yourself at first (just because it's so light), but easy after a few goes. It would be great for using at a pool or at the beach etc or even just outside on hot days. It's comfortable & very lightweight.
