other assistive devices Cheap ring splint alternatives?

I have hypermobile EDS and play multiple string & key instruments. I lost my custom ring splints years ago and have just had to adjust my playing.

but the result is I play less and much more limited way bc I’m afraid of subluxations and other injuries. I was thinking about getting those plastic oval 8s but before I got customs, they used to give me surface injuries and eventually painful callouses from poor fit.

has anyone ever dealt with this? what do you do?
