Tummy Trimmer/Ventral Hernia Umbilical Belt 8"

I landed in hospital for a year due to medications I was forced to take as well as mRNA vaccines causing acute appendicitis. I had never been sick in my life at all up u til 37 years old and bought up tough so left it for 4-5 days trying to treat it myself thinking it was UTI type thing not even considering my appendix had burst! An ambulance came and took me to hospital with technically not vital signs at the same time I remember it all clearly strangely. They rushed me into emergency surgery where locum doctor put a hole in my bowel. I had other issues and was in ICU for some time. I was pretty out of sorts for a few months with infection and didn’t eat. After a month and half-2months I caught Covid in hospital and coughed so hard my intestines came out of the whole for 6 months or more and while I had a further two surgery to put them back inside I now have three(poss more) very large incisional hernias up my massive belly zip line and high I have left for ages and awaiting further surgery. I have been having some extreme pain and digestive issues etc. got this which is too big and I think ai need to go down two sizes based on size charts. It’s amazing but some feedback would be that the seams dig in and scratch in areas, especially when sitting which is awful and could be put together better. I think many people like myself are wider in one area and not in the other considering it is over hips and waist so the Velcro patch could benefit from maybe an option where you can tighten one of the straps more than other? Also I am not sure if it has stretched a little as it seems to have gotten even looser on the top half than when got it? Another thing is also that some people have lots of hernia in different places, I have a particularly long torso section and many hernias which might not be the norm but I find the width of entire belt not quite sufficient because I have hernia popping out up top at same time as at bottom/whatever squished flesh as well which looks weird and is uncomfortable. I used a few different belts when in hospital(or they tried to get me to but they were absolutely awful, uncomfortable, too hot etc!) and this one is by far superior to anything I have seen or used personally. Very happy I shopped around to find this one and it is for most part as good as my instincts told me. Could use a few tweaks like padding over seams to stop that awful feeling which has actually caused light scabbing and certainly discomfort). Hope this helps with the design, if not still happy to not be in as much pain as I would be in other ways. It’s nice to have a break because it’s much worse than you would think in areas you wouldn’t even consider would be affected!

The belt is designed so that it won't roll or bunch, so it is very confortable to wear. I can wear this design all day without problems.

Excellent product for anyone experiencing hernia

I purchased 3 of these products when I recently had a double mastectomy with immediate breast reconstruction. I’ll need to wear them for several months as the hip to hip abdominal wound heals. I was immediately impressed by how comfortable they were to wear, how well they adapting to my body shape and the quality of the manufacturing. Definitely worth the investment!
