Everyday Medical Umbilical Hernia Belt for Men - Abdominal Binder Post Surgery, Hernia Support for Women with Compression Pad, Abdominal Compression Garment for Incisional, Epigastric, & Ventral - S/M

Works well for my mom to give her back some core support and hold in the hernia. Not noticeable under clothing. Good Velcro strength and hold. Easy to use. Fit and design is as described.

This hernia belt is comfortable and does the job perfectly! There is less pain when wearing it so I can be a bit more active.

In many ways, this is a great product--I've worn it for about a month to address and umbilical hernia, and the hernia is almost gone. But the sizing is "generous:" I have a 45" belly, which by their sizing chart would call for a L/XL size. After a month, though, it's stretched out and I have a five inch flap hanging out. I'm going to order the next size down, and I think that will work fine. My suggestion is that you get a size smaller than the chart suggests. So even though I've given this four stars (instead of five, because of the size problem), it's a great product and you're likely to be happy with it if you get the right size.

I’ve used a dozen core/waste bands over the last year and a half and this band is “hands down the best!!!” The others were either to wide, or to thin, the fastener would not stay attached, they used rubber that made me sweat and cause skin irritation, the material was poor quality and would start wearing and lose form and fit in a short amount of time or were just to uncomfortable to wear for any length of time! This band is sturdy, breaths, the fastener is well made and does not lose it’s hold even when working out or performing other physical tasks and I can wear this over an under garment (tee shirt) and wear a Dress or casual shirt over it tucked in and bloused up slightly and it is not visible. I really like this one and highly recommend it to anyone who needs abdominal/core/Back support. In my opinion there are only (2) Cons: 1) The Hernia pad is too rigid and uncomfortable as well as being to deep, causing pain at the sight it is place upon. 2) It prints your skin somewhat but I didn’t feel that it was a problem because I wear mine pretty tight! *Those are the only Cons and neither one is a problem. I suggest not using the indent pad. The material is strong and flexible, and in my opinion it’s not necessary. If your on the fence about buying another waist support band for any reason, this one will not disappoint! Like I mentioned earlier I’ve tried quite a few and this by far has been the best I’ve ever had the pleasure of wearing. Good luck! God bless you. Sincerely, -Bruce

I usually wear a Size L in briefs, so I ordered the L/XL. Unfortunately it was just too loose. Not snug enough. The S/M is a much better fit. Very comfortable. 10/28 I had to drop the rating from 5 stars down to 3 after 2 months of use. The velcro on the belt is no longer functioning. After using some new velcro to test with, I've determined that the "fuzzy" side is no longer fuzzy enough for the "tooth" side to grasp. I'm going to sew new velcro into the belt since it was very helpful.

Works great

Very comfortable to wear. Supportive and sturdy.

I would have given this five stars if not for a couple things. 1. It's advertised as being able to be worn under shirts/pants without being detected, but when I wear it, nothing fits and I look as if I've gained ten pounds or more. 2. No matter how hard I work to tighten it, it tends to want to slide down. This is likely a fault of the body, not the belt! 3. I've found it difficult to get it to stay where I want it to while pulling far on the other end to affix it...and it definitely takes practice to get the two ends of the belt to line up. (If you don't, it'll chafe you.) Otherwise, the construction is very good and the built-in protrusion really does do a good job of keeping the hernia retracted. (Mine is not relocatable; if I push it in, it pops right back out. It is likely the largest umbilical hernia ever known to medical science; I estimate its size at over 3". No, I'm not kidding. I got it after an auto accident and while a chiropractor was adjusting me while I lay face down on his table. What had been a tiny hernia --- about as big as the tip of your little finger...for years --- immediately ripped into a giant, Alien movie-like monster that caused me immediate nausea and heart attack feeling.) Now that I've put it in context, it should carry weight with you when I say that when I wear this belt, get the protrusion properly centered and get the belt tight enough, I don't feel any of the god-awful discomfort I've learned to live with every day. Why not have surgery? Well, I'm a scaredy cat for one. Second, I know people who have had surgery on much smaller hernias than mine...and have needed repeated follow-up surgeries due to complications. I also have done enough reading of the medical literature to know that hernia surgeries tend to be associated with lots of --- potentially serious --- complications. Until mine is so bad that I can't stand it, I'm biding my time. If you're biding your time, too, I urge you to try this belt. It might be just what the doctor, uh, ordered.

Qualité supérieur de matériaux , je la porte 24h/24h sans aucunes allergie ou autres... et à même la peau ! à réduit légèrement la diastisis abdominale du grand droit ( abdominaux ) que je développe mais sans augmentation depuis le port de la ceinture qui dans le cas extrême implique une intervention chirurgicale pour recoudre les muscles abdominaux ventrale "oblique" entre eux

Better if fastener was wider or there were a number of different sections

Sitzt sehr gut unter dem Hemd. Benutze ich, um meine geprellte Rippen zu stabilisieren. Hält gut und hat mir wirklich geholfen, auf die Beine zu kommen.
