The Universal Abdominal Binder is made with 6", 8", 10", or 12" wide super stretch elastic. At one end of the elastic there is a 1/8" thick X 21" long foam pad laminated (covered) with soft soothing cotton flannel. The foam pad adds rigidity, padding, and provides a non-elastic zone that helps to direct compression to the front of the abdomen. The Universal Abdominal binder is made for many purposes and conditions; however, some of the more popular include abdominal hernia reduction, post operative, postpartum, bariatric support, flattening and smoothing of the abdomen. Customer Reviews My husband has purchased two supports from you as they were so much better than the one?s we could buy here in England .He suffers from Crohn?s Disease and wear he has had repeated operations he has developed Hernias. The difference they have made is amazing, his pain from his Hernias has subsided and his digestion/indigestion has improved dramatically. Keeping him supported and straight has help in so many ways!
