Personally I vote this way. Don't overcomplicate them and half the cost

Those are straps, he asked for wraps.

Same brand, but wraps this time.

Or, if you already don't, try having your hands face the opposite ways before you buy those. I personally use the straps for everything though (even rows and pulldowns)

These are good and they're pretty cheap too.

These
I like them. I practiced on random objects around my house. They're sturdy but not uncomfortable.
Haha, no worries. I use these, they're fine. The plain cotton ones might be even better from a durability standpoint.
Wraps or straps? I got the elitefts normal wrist wraps in 80cm.
I also have some cheapo Harbinger straps, but those are different.

They work well
My boyfriend has these that I borrow sometimes. My wrists are almost 5.5" at the widest point and these work fine, though I'd look for a women's version if your wrists are any smaller than mine as the size of the neoprene padding will prevent the straps from tightening.
You should definitely see a doctor or a physical therapist, because they might be more help for your specific grip issue. But in the meantime, buy some straps!
Youtube videos will probably be better than a description, but you basically just wear the straps around your wrist at one end, and then loop them around the weight a few times before you grab it. That way, the weight is basically hanging off the wrist, and requires only a very little strength to keep the strap from unravelling. They take grip strength almost entirely out of the equation.
I'd recommend against using them for everything all the time because it will cause you to stop working on your grip strength, but a great way to do it is to lift with normal grip until your grip starts to fail (or you start to feel numbness or pain), then put on the straps and lift more weight without working your grip! It can keep you making progress in the gym without feeling like your grip is holding you back.
I have straps that are just a loop of fabric that go around your wrist then wrap around the bar. You still get some grip work along with the assistance.
Basically these. I'd do as many without as I could then strap up.

Adidas Powerlift 3 Oly/squat shoes, 0.6" heel
You can get the 2's and the originals for cheaper if you look around on the internet a little bit more.
Adidas "Adipower" Oly shoes, 0.75" heel
I've heard most people get these for closer to 80-90 dollars, but I don't know where. Wei Rui is also a good brand for heeled Oly/squat shoes and come it a fair bit cheaper, but are not available on Amazon.
As for wraps and sleeves, I've no experience with them so I can't help much.
Use wrist straps
