Description
OTC Abdominal Hernia Support — Minimum Degree of Support for the Abdomen
The OTC Abdominal Hernia Support is an orthopaedic support for the abdomen, rated at OTC's minimum degree of support — for weak and aching muscles and joints, after recovery, or to help prevent injury. Ribbed web elastic molds around surface anatomy. OTC indicates it for umbilical hernia, weak or pendulous abdomen, abdominal contusions and tenderness, and sizing is taken around the fullest part of the abdomen.

Sizes may differ between various brands of support stockings—each manufacturer has their own sizing chart. A medium in one brand may not be a medium in another, and some brands offer petite (shorter) lengths while others do not. Knowing your measurements will ensure you get compression hosiery that fits properly and comfortably. Sizing charts are located on every product’s “see details” page.
