A shoulder immobilizer is a medical device designed to limit the movement of the shoulder and upper arm to promote healing after an injury or surgery. It typically consists of a sling and a strap system that secures the arm against the body, reducing strain on the shoulder joint and minimizing the risk of further injury. By immobilizing the shoulder, it allows for proper recovery of tissues and reduces pain.
