Adult Umbilical Hernia Belt Support (20cm Height, 98-115cm Waist)

Umbilical Hernia Support Belt

Umbilical Hernia Support Belt (Abdominal Wall) - Ecoten GP-20 (20cm Height, L-size: 98-115cm Waist)

Description: A 20cm high umbilical hernia support belt for adults. Provides effective support and relief for umbilical hernias.

The umbilical ring is the weakest point in the lower abdominal wall, lacking muscle and fat tissue – often just post-partum scar tissue. Weakening can lead to a hernia, a protrusion of intestinal loops, omentum, or other organs. Consult a qualified physician for diagnosis and treatment. Surgery is often recommended if no contraindications exist. Post-surgery (following herniotomy), proper rehabilitation is crucial, including the use of a hernia support belt to prevent recurrence. If surgery isn't an option, a support belt helps prevent strangulation.

Indications for Use:

• Abdominal muscle separation (diastasis recti)
• Various abdominal wall hernias
• Anterior abdominal trauma
• Postpartum support: The abdominal cavity remains stretched after childbirth, increasing hernia risk. Some pregnant women experience umbilical protrusion during pregnancy.
• Delaying use can lead to complications, including irreducible hernia and potential tissue necrosis.

Product Advantages:

• Daily use reduces pain by preventing compression of tissues within the hernia sac.
• Improves abdominal muscle tone, although it won't fully restore the umbilicus to its natural position.
• Ergonomic design: A 20cm high belt made from special perforated elastic fabric (including elastane), incorporating anti-twist plastic inserts. Features an external tightening strap for adjustable compression.
• An anatomically shaped semi-rigid pad (pelot) attaches via Velcro to the inner surface. This pad applies pressure to the umbilicus, gently guiding it back to its natural position and preventing further protrusion.
• Available in 4 sizes (waist circumference: 83-140cm).
• Discreet under clothing, comfortable, and unrestrictive, allowing for all-day wear.
• Proven effective both for hernia support and prevention, suitable from early stages through to the post-operative period.

Contraindications:

• Irreducible and strangulated hernias (the pad can worsen the condition).
• Material allergies.
• Skin rashes, viral, or fungal infections in the application area.
• Other contraindications identified during a medical examination.

Proper Use and Care:

The height of the support belt should correspond to the hernia size. The pad must be larger than the hernia to avoid strangulation. Multiple pads may be necessary for multiple hernias. Incorrect use can worsen the condition. Consult your physician before use. Apply in the morning after waking, while the body is relaxed and the hernia is reduced.

Care instructions: Gentle hand washing without harsh chemicals or machine washing on a delicate cycle with minimal spin.

Important Note:

Incorrectly fitting or using a hernia support belt can exacerbate the condition. A physician's consultation is essential before purchasing.
