How to clean your splint
If you are able to take your splint off for a period of time, this is a good
time to clean it.
• Clean the splint with soap and warm water and scrub it with a small
brush.
• Rub the inside of the splint with alcohol to reduce odor.
• Hand wash the Velcro straps and stockinet with warm, soapy water
and then air dry.
Talk to your doctor, nurse or therapist if you have any questions or
concerns.
