wrapping can offer additional support. My advice would be to try it, and see if it works for you.

Yeah, maybe try wrapping- not too tight, obviously, but enough to keep it from swelling (if that is happening) and to add additional support. A wide ace bandage should give you an idea of if it will help or not, you can see how it feels. If it helps, maybe you could use a jointed brace to provide support at the angle you need?
