gloves are hard for me because I have tiny little fingers. my ring sizes range between 1.5 (pinky) and 5.5 (pointer) if that helps you get a better picture of how teeny. so my motivation for which gloves is definitely "do they come in xs??"

I used to always buy imak https://www.amazon.com/Imak-20174A-X-Large-IMAK-Compression/dp/B008PRM6NY which are fantastic, but I found myself needing something a little cheaper recently bc ~20 a pair adds up, and at a store close to my house they can be as high as $25 a pair. my most recent haul was 6 pair of these (they run very small, so small works for me here) https://www.ebay.com/itm/Arthritis-Compression-Joint-Finger-Pain-Relief-Gloves-Hand-Wrist-Support-Brace/123869831724?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&var=424600109415&_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649 and that should last me a good while.

you mentioned compression socks, I am also a huge fan. last year I was having difficulty with my toes, like they were hyperextending in the tiny knuckle joints every step I took. I needed to stabilize my toes to continue walking, and working on my feet. at home I can wear Birkenstocks bc that little toe bar in the sole is a lifesaver, but those dont work all weather where I live and I can't wear them to work. so these really silly compression/toe socks have also been a huge lifesaver and definitely the reason I am able to walk some days https://www.injinji.com

also, these questions dont bother me at all! I truly appreciate all the help Ive ever been given, and I want to help as many people as I can with what I do know. all of my pains came on very suddenly a few years ago, after a fairly serious case of orthorexia. I was forced into a tight spot once I had lost my muscle mass, my joints all over my body were suddenly very unstable and the pain erupted everywhere. I needed working solutions fast! so if anyone has any questions regarding braces, gloves, shoes, etc, I've been trying to improve my quality of life for a few years now, and will do my best to help in any way I can <3
