This condition may develop over time or as the result of a trauma. One of the treatments for more serious cases of CTS is surgery on the elbow, which may reposition the ulnar nerve or simply remove the bone that is aggravating the nerve. Following these procedures, the Corflex XR Cubital Tunnel Splint may be an ideal recovery aid, holding the elbow at a stiff 122 degrees while still allowing for a full range of motion. It may also be used after an elbow cast is removed, and provides the following benefits:Protection from accidental impacts Holds the elbow joint rigidly in ideal healing position Diminishes swelling Prevents discomfort and pain during healing
