Save Your Breath: Explanatory Slings

May 29, 2009

If you're a weekend warrior or prone to injury, you might find these explanatory slings handy.

Having lived through a couple of different shoulder injuries, which both required sling time, explaining my situation became old, and fast. Unfortunately, these supports weren't around when I was injured, nor are they available now. These cute explanatory slings are a concept of a designer who no doubt has had his fair share of upper body injuries. Hopefully you all will make it through your next weekend sporting event free of injury.

Unless there's one for being dared to stand on a cone and falling on my arm, I don't think I'll need one :P

Oh my gosh, these kill me! My husband recently broke his knuckles and fractured his forearm (by punching a wall when he realized he'd been pickpocketed, poor guy) and he is SO SICK of telling the story over and over again. People are really nosy, haha!...Although I really don't know what kind of illustration they'd use for his particular story.

Those are really cute! My brother hurt his wrist when he fell on it while trying to go for a HackeySack once...wonder if you could get a sling showing THAT, LOL.

Too funny - I was running yesterday and there was a man also running with his arm in a sling, and I was wondering about it as he passed me ..... this would have helped.
