Descriptions:
A Surgical Truss is used for temporary management of a hernia, though surgery is probably the best permanent cure.
A hernia is a bulging of an internal organ e.g intestine through a weakened point in the abdominal wall. Hernias may occur at birth if the abdominal wall has not fully closed. It may also develop later in life due to aging or stressful physical activity.
A common type of hernia is “inguinal” or groin hernia. There is usually some pain when bending over or lifting objects or coughing.
For a Surgical Truss or Hernia Belt to be used, the hernia must be reducible i.e you should be able to push the hernia back into the abdomen. After that, wearing the Surgical Truss will apply pressure on the area and prevent the hernia from popping back out.
Since hernias are caused by weakness of tissue (called fascia) rather than due to weakness of abdominal muscles, exercises cannot cure or prevent hernia. It is likely that the extra pressure of the exercise may worsen the hernia.
