Jar and can openers
Trying to open a jar lid or bottle cap can place stress on your hand joints. There are many different types of opening devices that can help.
Jar openers with larger, cushioned grips ease the stress on your hand joints. Installing a mounted jar opener is another option. For cans, use an electric can opener to avoid the finger strain of turning a hand-held model.
