Hernia Truss and Support
A hernia truss or hernia support is used to provide compression around a developing hernia to help prevent the hernia from increasing in size and as a result reduces the pain, often being used by those awaiting surgery.
Hernia can develop in a range of places in the body and occur when boundary walls around an organ become damaged or are weak and as a result the internal organs bulge through the boundary. They frequently occur in the groin area of the body, but can be managed using either a single sided hernia truss or double sided hernia truss.
