    Needing a few suggestions for an armband

    So I recently took a trip to Alexander springs over the weekend and got to meet some amazing people, one problem though, I got way too cold.
    Something weird about me is I have an extra spleen on my left arm, despite this I've never had any problems going into pools or even the gulf when i can but this time was different. I noticed that every time my left arm was under water I got cold so quickly I could barely stay in past twenty minutes at a time. This really upset me because normally I could be in an hour at a time and be fine. But due to this experience I decided to post to the forum and see what you guys suggest as a way to cover it. I have been thinking of customizing a brace or making a neoprene sleeve but I'm not sure.

    Did you mean splint?

    Neoprene is warm so that could be a good idea!

    Possibly, I'm not entirely sure what to get really. I was worried I might not be able to find one that covers since its right below my elbow, I'll look into those though.

    Get a flesh colored one, and then you can decorate it with netting, scales, fishing lures, seaweed etc.

    That's a great idea Jaffa, hopefully I can find some I've tried ebay but I only found black so far.

    Worst casinario you may have to look up a quick sewing tutorial buy some neoprene online buy some sewing stuff and do it yourself. That is just a last resort but if it comes to that i would suggest just sewing a very loose tube then alter it to fit snug on your arm.
