Hernia Belts Trusses and Supports

Hernia belts and hernia trusses are used to help prevent hernias from worsening and allow the body to heal. Hernias are medical conditions in which organs push through weaknesses in abdominal muscles or connective tissues. Although some hernias can be deep enough to not be visible from the outside, most hernias appear as abnormal abdominal bulges. Hernias can be painful or uncomfortable. Certain types of hernias, such as hiatal hernias, may cause chronic acid reflux. Most hernias will eventually need surgical repair. A doctor will generally monitor a hernia’s progression and will recommend surgery when it is necessary.

Hernia supports include trusses, suspensory devices, hernia belts, hernia briefs, sacroiliac belts, and sports briefs. Vitality Medical carries a good selection of hernia supports from Luminiscope, Hermell, Surgical Appliance, FLA Orthopedics, and Medline.

What Causes Hernias?

There are many different causes of hernias in men. One of the most common causes of hernias is a job that involves heavy lifting or hours of standing. Chronic allergies that cause excessive coughing and frequent sneezing can also cause hernias, as can chronic constipation, a history of pelvic or abdominal surgeries, and chronic obesity (a body mass index greater than 30).

Hernia Belt and Hernia Supportive Treatments

Until a hernia’s progression is such that surgical intervention is necessary, hernia belts, hernia meshes, and hernia trusses are all great ways to manage any pain or discomfort. Choose a hernia support belt based on a doctor's recommendations and carefully follow their instructions on how and when to use it, as well as for how long to wear it. Wearing an appropriately suited truss or belt helps to prevent further hernias from developing and prevent the current hernia from worsening. These supports typically come in a variety of sizes and shapes to suit the individual or the affected area of the body. If a hernia is suspected, don't hesitate to get a checkup from a doctor and seek the appropriate treatment and equipment needed for support and healing.
