Tenbon Hernia Belt Truss for Men and Women Left or Right Side Supportive Groin Pain with Removable Compression Pads for Pre or Post-Surgical, Femoral, Comfortable Adjustable (Black, L)

I developed an inguinal hernia whilst lifting a very heavy box of floor tiles. Went to doctors and was told to see how it goes. Anyway after a few weeks of mild discomfort it really popped out and I ended up in our local A&E and after a scan I was taken in an ambulance to the major county hospital, where I spent the night in pain with assorted drips in my arm. I was seen by a consultant and he popped it back in and said it was not an emergency and they would book me in for an routine operation and said to buy an hernia support. So bought one of these and instant relief. Holds the hernia in place and lets me get on with life whilst I wait for my operation. Fits well and is comfortable to wear all day. Lasted nearly a year of daily use before it started to wear out when the Velcro lost its grip. So simply bought another one. Worth every penny.

Well made and it works.

I've tried 3 different truss's since developing hernia, and this one is the best. Dearer than the first 2. All hold the hernia in, but this one feels much more comfortable.

I was skeptical about the effectiveness but I gave it a go. I was amazed at how it helped relieve the pain in my hernia region. Very easy to use size is good. Very good design doesn’t look. Like it’s going to work but believe me it does. I don’t write reviews often and usually only for stuff that actually works

If you’ve had unreduced hernia pain you will know it can bring tears to your eyes. After three trips to A&E the five hour wait on a trolley for the consultant was worth it when he ‘reduced’ (pushed back in) the hernia in 20 seconds flat, also with me FLAT if you’re doing it yourself. He then advised a truss until the hernia could be repaired by investigation in clinic and possible surgery. Unfortunately he just advised ‘a’ truss to the staff, not exactly which type. The truss the staff came back with was a ‘jock strap’ for a scrotal truss. Mine is inguinal and the truss was useless. Rather than have my wife drive me the 30 miles to A&E for the fourth time in as many days, I did a bit of research and came up with this one partly because of the ‘prime’ SAME DAY promised delivery. It didn’t turn up and the ‘no reply’ email address seemed to understand my curt response as it was on the doorstep this morning. Thank you Amazon system for having more sense than your creators. Perhaps AI is more common than we think. All health products should have priority delivery. Without health we cannot work. Without the wealth from work we cannot pay our taxes. Without taxes the economy goes to pot and everyone, Government included, uses stealth to avoid or gather the taxes. Health, Wealth, Stealth. A very simple but effective product that has allowed me to walk out for the first time in three weeks. Many thanks. Durability will now be part of the criteria. I’ll let you know…. One note ….the ‘instructions’ don’t match the product. If you want to change from right to left the ‘front panel’ does NOT come off; you need to slide the pouch round to the left and tighten the belt Velcro fastener somewhere over your tummy. If you are male, I would advise wearing boxer shorts with loose fitting legs so that you do not have to unfasten the belt to ‘spend a penny’. Nuff said?……

After being diagnosed with a inguinal hernia I wanted something I can buy to wear until surgery to try to forget about it, reduce any visibility, the aches and pains. I thought I'd give this a try from the reviews and I've been wearing it every day all day and take it off at night. At first I was so self-conscious that others would notice this through my clothes and feel a little silly however it really isn't noticeable and if somone was to really study you could get away with it just being something in your pocket especially in jeans. It has just become an additional piece of clothing for me. With the NHS waiting times for an operation this is going to be a game changer. I put this on in the morning laying down to make sure the hernia isn't out. I have already brought another for when this one is in the wash. The velcro seems fine ATM I've read from previous comments it's not reliable but if I get any issues I'll just sew some on myself. The fit is great and it's comfy as it can be for what it is and you really do forget your wearing it, I mean it's definitely better than the alternatives to not wearing it.

Extremely helpful item, enables me to go about life without thinking about the hernia. It also means I can continue to exercise which is an important thing both physically and mentally. It fits well, sometimes not the most comfortable thing in the world but that's the nature of the product rather than its design. I've ordered another one due to the need to have 1 for standard wear and one for exercise. Great product.

Expensive as it only lasted for approximately 20 days of wearing. The velcro flap (hook part) is cheapt and lost it's grab so pinsg open all the time. CFurtehr frustrated by Amazon's poor choice of options so frced to select arrivd 'damaged'. Tried the 'speak to us' but even worse. Very limited choice of answers the system will allow you. If this is the future of AI, god help us. Do not buy this, look for a better one from a proper health product company. EDITED TO ADD: THERE'S NO OPTION TO HAVE THIS EXCHANGED FOR ANOTHER IN CASE I WAS JUST UNLCUKY?
