Inguinal/Femoral Hernias
We recommend the pants/briefs, not the belt/wrap. The support garment should cover the hernia repair incision (or hernia lump, if you have not had surgery).
Hernia pants are not trusses and we do not recommend a hernia truss for men or women for post-surgery support.
Umbilical/Paraumbilical/Epigastric
We recommend the belt/wrap, not the pants. The support garment should cover the hernia repair incision (or hernia lump, if you have not had surgery yet).
Spigelian/Incisional
Spigelian and lower abdominal wall incisional hernias can occur in areas supported by both hernia pants and wraps.
For spigelian or incisional hernias in the lower abdominal area, the hernia pants/briefs may cover the incision or hernia better than the abdominal wrap.
