Arthritis Compression Gloves for EDS Pain Relief

Has anyone tried arthritis compression gloves for their EDS? I have a decent amount of pain in my hands and fingers and I wanted to see if it would be worth it to try these. If they work it would be cheaper than ring splints.

I actually have! I can say they gave some some pain relief, but not a ton. It helped more with my knuckles then my actual finger joints, just because compression isn't the same as actually supporting the joint itself

They are great for me, but not compressing enough on my wrists

I like to wear arthritis gloves while I sleep and compression gloves while I’m awake. Arthritis gloves are very sturdy and will basically hold all your fingers in place while you sleep. I have small hands, and it was a challenge to find the right compression gloves, but I finally found them and I love them, bonus: they have the little grippers! If my arthritis gloves had little grippers, I’d be on cloud nine!

I use KT tape b/c they don’t always bother me. Compression gloves hurt way too much and caused swelling
