Tenbon Hernia Belt for Men and Women Flexible Adjustable Inguinal Groin Hernia Belt Support Truss Pain Relief Recovery Strap with 2 Removable Compression Pads Comfortable Material (M)

This belt is well made, very comfortable and does what I expected it to do. My only issue with this belt came after about 6 weeks of almost constant use. The large velcro attachment was starting to weaken and bend as it gets rubbed backwards by the movement of the body and clothing. The velcro then starts to be less "sticky" and less effective. However, this issue was easily solved by reinforcing this section with 2 pieces of flexible plastic or rubber making sure allow it to still curve around the body. Now that this section has been stiffened the velcro never bends backwards and stay firmly in place. This should be part of the design and I am sure that it is the same issue on other brands. At around £30 per belt it is not cost effective to replace them every few months. Initially I bought a small but later bought a medium. I find the medium much more versatile with regards to adjustment options and comfort. Essentially the small and medium are the same basic design but with a longer main strap. I wear a belt all day and evening except for sleeping. In combination with careful lower abdominal exercises I am aiming to avoid surgery. I also use an electronic device that triggers muscles in order to strengthen them (without doing the potentially damaging exercises such as sit ups and crunches). These devices are easily found on Amazon. I also follow a youtube channel which I will highly recommend: My Natural Hernia Cure. This is produced by a young, athletic guy who reversed his inguinal hernia without surgery.

Very comfortable and effective. It gave me a feeling of confidence, even though my hernia was on the left hand side.

I had a double hernia and wore this for months before my operation, I am slim and active. It enabled me to be more active and I am sure that it helped to prevent the hernia enlarging even more. Just having straps going under the crotch would not apply sufficient pressure so the foam pads it provides enable the straps to push into the groin in a useful way. I bought boxer short underwear to go with this as the straps did chafe a bit when worn with briefs. My only complaint was lack of instruction on how to attach the velcro but a bit of experimentation provided good solutions. The velcro is micro so it is thin and does not have big pads of hooks.

Truss worthy product

Is bit trial and error to find best locations to affix the strap ends. But once the fit feels/is right for the position of your hernia, then just step in and out of the truss. Used in that way, do not expect the strap hook'n'loop ends to wear out as some reviewers have commented. Do not wash it without removing foam pad(s).

Prompt delivery, easy to fit, comfortable as such things can be I guess, seems to be doing the job and I'm stuck with it indefinitely, according to consultant, once fitted (easy) no problem from day to day. Yes, I'm quite pleased with it, as It seems I must have it. Good job thanks!

Good price, support really well, very comfortable, very effective, ease adjustment.

Arrived on time as expected quality
