I have to agree with Litlove - immobilizing is bad and will lead to declining function. Find ways to increase comfort and keep moving the limb. Try immersing the arm in a tub of warm water and do range of motion exercise of the fingers and wrists under water. Mayybe wear a soft cotton glove . Have you done physical therapy?
Wishing you wellness ~Lottie
