If you want input comma separated string as input & apply in in query in that then you can make Function like:

create FUNCTION [dbo].[Split](@String varchar(MAX), @Delimiter char(1))       
    returns @temptable TABLE (items varchar(MAX))       
    as       
    begin      
        declare @idx int       
        declare @slice varchar(8000)       

        select @idx = 1       
            if len(@String)<1 or @String is null  return       

        while @idx!= 0       
        begin       
            set @idx = charindex(@Delimiter,@String)       
            if @idx!=0       
                set @slice = left(@String,@idx - 1)       
            else       
                set @slice = @String       

            if(len(@slice)>0)  
                insert into @temptable(Items) values(@slice)       

            set @String = right(@String,len(@String) - @idx)       
            if len(@String) = 0 break       
        end   
    return 
    end;

You can use it like :

Declare @Values VARCHAR(MAX);

set @Values ='1,2,5,7,10';
Select * from DBTable
    Where id  in (select items from [dbo].[Split] (@Values, ',') )

Alternatively if you don't have comma-separated string as input, You can try Table variable OR TableType Or Temp table like: INSERT using LIST into Stored Procedure
