The Inguinal Hernia Support Discrete Brief - Pant Orione Ref.560 is specifically designed to assist individuals suffering from single or dual (bilateral) inguinal hernias. This innovative garment provides maximum perspiration control and comfort, making it an ideal choice for those looking for effective support without sacrificing comfort. The brief is lightweight yet supportive, ensuring that it retains its features even after prolonged use.
One of the standout features of this hernia support brief is its ability to aid in post-surgery recovery. It is particularly beneficial for individuals who have undergone surgery for inguinal hernias, as it helps prevent reoccurrences and speeds up the healing process. The “free tension” action of the brief promotes the reforming of tissue, which can significantly reduce recovery times and ease post-surgery pain.
The Inguinal Hernia Support Discrete Brief is crafted predominantly from cotton, making it especially suitable for warmer climates. Its design closely resembles that of a normal brief, providing a discreet option for those who require hernia support. The styling is cut higher than other designs, allowing wearers to determine the suitability of the garment based on the position of their inguinal hernia.
This model is particularly recommended for smaller hernias and offers freedom of movement, making it a great choice for active individuals. The airy, elasticated fabric is designed for all-day wear, ensuring that users can go about their daily activities without discomfort.
The brief comes with two optional anatomically shaped, flat foam pads that can be inserted into pockets within the garment for added comfort. These pads are designed to provide targeted support for both single and bilateral hernias, enhancing the overall effectiveness of the brief.
When it comes to sizing, it is crucial to measure around the waist with a tape measure, approximately where the top of your normal underwear would sit. It is important not to assume that your normal trouser size corresponds to your waist size. If you find yourself on the borderline of sizes, it is advisable to choose the smaller size for a better fit.
The Inguinal Hernia Support Discrete Brief is suitable for inguinal hernias classified as 'reducible.' However, it is essential to avoid using this product on injured skin or in conjunction with ointments or creams. If you have any doubts about its use, it is always best to consult your physician for guidance on the appropriate time and method of use.
This brief is not recommended for individuals whose hernia has emerged into the scrotum, as the internal foam pads need to cover the entire hernia area for effective relief. Additionally, it is advised not to wear this product directly after surgery, especially if you have had a mesh-type hernia repair, as pressure on the mesh may lead to internal inflammation.
Once you have received clearance from your surgeon regarding your recovery rates, the hernia brief can be worn as a general gentle support without the foam pads. This versatility makes it an excellent choice for those looking to maintain comfort and support during their recovery journey.
