Best Hernia Belts of 2025

"I have an umbilical hernia that needs surgery, and this belt has been a game changer for me. It offers great support and pressure to keep everything in place. Surprisingly, it's quite comfortable—I can walk, sit, and even sleep in it without noticing it's there. After wearing it for a day, it hasn't shifted or loosened at all. Great product!"

"Having undergone multiple major abdominal surgeries, I developed a bulging hernia that was quite unsightly. I decided to try the Ortonyx Belt, and I'm glad I did. The interior pad pushes my hernia in, improving my appearance without discomfort. It provides the support I need for walking and daily activities, and honestly, it's so comfortable that I sometimes forget I'm wearing it—like a wristwatch. I chose the Small Size for my 34" waist, and it's just right."

"I purchased this hernia band for my husband, who has been feeling the onset of an umbilical hernia due to his physically demanding job. We got the XL size, which fits well. He mentions that he occasionally needs to adjust it for comfort while bending, but it’s not scratchy as some reviews suggested. It can get a bit warm, but overall, he's found it to be comfortable for the tasks he does."

"I found this belt to be high quality and the sizing was perfect! It provided immediate relief to my pre-op hernia. It's easy to put on and stays in place, offering comfortable yet sturdy support. I can even wear it under my clothes. I wish I had ordered it sooner!"

"I bought two sizes: the recommended size and a smaller one. The smaller one fits better but is still a bit big. However, the strong chemical smell was overwhelming. It made my tongue numb and gave me a headache. The smell clung to my clothes even after washing it. After leaving it outside in the sun for two days, it’s better and I think I can wear it now. Aside from that, it seems like it will work."

"My husband appreciates this hernia belt. His hernia isn’t severe enough for the VA to address, and although it doesn't hurt, it does bother him because it sticks out. He wears this belt and feels better as it keeps everything in place. I rated it 5 stars because it was worth the money."

"I am a size 31 and thought it might be too big, but it fits perfectly! The ability to adjust the fit is great. I position it over my left hernia, and it covers it nicely. Very comfortable and stays in place well."

"I had a right inguinal hernia and used a makeshift solution while waiting for my order. This truss is a life saver! I've been able to work pain-free with it on, and when I take it off, my hernia isn't even visible most of the time. Highly recommend this product!"

"I purchased this belt for support before surgery. It does its job well and provides the pressure I need. Not uncomfortable to wear, but I did encounter some Velcro issues. Overall, it worked effectively until my surgery."

"I find this belt incredibly comfortable and I wear it all the time. It fits me perfectly and feels great. I will definitely be buying more of these."

"After trying various options, I settled on this belt because it is wide and adjustable. It has been working well for me, keeping my hernia in check while I continue to exercise. The egg-shaped pad provides the necessary pressure, and I’ve gotten used to the strap under my groin. I wear loose clothing to keep it discreet, and overall, it’s a fantastic solution as I wait for my surgery."

"While I appreciate the good pressure this belt provides for my hernia, I found the adjustable compression pad somewhat restrictive when bending over. Despite that, I can manage my daily activities without much discomfort, and it works effectively as intended."

"I was amazed at how much this belt has relieved my pain. After visiting the ER and finding out I had a hernia, I knew I needed something to help me manage the discomfort while I waited for surgery. This belt has reduced my pain by at least 75%, and there are moments where I feel nearly pain-free. It's easy to put on, fully adjustable with Velcro, and while the crotch strap initially seemed bothersome, I barely notice it now."

"This product is great! I bought it for my husband, and he finds it very effective at holding the hernia in place while he works. He needed some time to adjust to the groin strap, but now he’s comfortable and recommends it highly. It helps him manage until he can have surgery."

"I wore this belt for six months before my surgery and found it to be the best one I tried. As long as I was awake, I had it on to keep my hernia in place. It was a lifesaver during my wait for the operation."

“At 67 years old, I've dealt with a right side inguinal hernia since I was 43. I never planned on surgery and have tried various solutions. This belt, however, exceeded my expectations. I use a medium size, and the Velcro is strong while the construction is well-stitched. It keeps my hernia pushed in and stationary, providing the best support I’ve found in 24 years of dealing with this issue.”

“I found this belt to be great for my inguinal hernia, but I needed more support during exercise. After some thought, I added suspenders, and it made a world of difference! The belt stays in place no matter how active I get. Overall, this is the best belt I've tried — very well made and durable.”

“I’ve only had this hernia belt for about five days, and it’s been really good so far. It’s easy to put on and stays in place throughout the day. I can even do light exercises without it budging. When I don’t wear it, my hernia starts to hurt, but while it’s on, I have no pain. I believe it deserves five stars!”

"I have a hereditary inguinal hernia that started bothering me about 7 months ago. With this belt and my strong compression shorts, I can lift and even play sports. However, I've noticed a weakness around my belly button and I'm concerned it might lead to an umbilical hernia. I'll be getting surgery soon, hoping I didn’t compromise my abdominal wall."

"I was diagnosed with a reducible inguinal hernia a month ago. My symptoms worsened to the point where I had to leave shopping to find relief. This product has been a game changer for me. I can now play tennis for an hour and walk three miles without issues, which I couldn’t do before. The velcro strap is a bit long, but it’s easy to fix. Overall, it’s a great product that helps me live without restrictions until I can have surgery."

"This belt has been effective in minimizing my hernia pain, but I've noticed the velcro is starting to lose its grip after a month. I had to sew additional velcro on to keep it secure. Despite this, it provides good compression and is comfortable enough for all-day wear."

"I was diagnosed with an inguinal hernia and needed a way to manage the pain while postponing surgery. After three months of using this product, I’m still pain-free! I compared it with pricier options, but this one is effective and affordable. I would appreciate a thinner pad, though."

"This device was easy to put on and adjust; it completely eliminated the discomfort from my hernia. I found it for only $10 on Amazon, a fraction of what I would pay elsewhere. Best purchase ever!"

"While it’s not ideal to need a hernia belt, this one is a solid choice for the price. It’s comfortable enough for extended wear, though I won’t forget I’m wearing it! It’s easy to adjust and works for both sides. Just a heads up: it can be a little tricky when using the bathroom!"

“I found that the Dr. Arthritis Inguinal Hernia significantly helped relieve the pain in my lower abdomen. Although my CT scan was negative, I feel much better using this groin support along with painkillers. Initially, I struggled to put it on, but after figuring out the strap attachments, it became easier. The four compression foam pads were useful, and the included Dr. Arthritis Handbook provided great tips and exercises for optimal comfort.”

“I was excited to try this belt, but I wish the sizing was more standard. I typically wear XXL, so I ordered an XL, but the under-leg straps are way too long. I might need to consider a medium size instead. While the quality seems good, I can’t use it effectively due to the lengthy straps. It would be beneficial if they added a sizing guide to the product page.”

“I ordered this belt as a precaution for potential abdominal issues. It arrived within four days, just as estimated. The product came in good condition, neatly packed in a mesh storage bag. The XL size fits a circumference of 50 inches, and the belt is well-constructed with a soft inner liner. The Velcro straps allow for easy adjustments, providing both flexibility and support.”

"I recently developed a hernia and tried another belt, but there’s no comparison. The Tenbon Truss is superior in every way—from materials to support. It’s easier to use and avoids discomfort. I’m not thrilled about wearing it, but it has become my new best friend."

"At 74, I was diagnosed with an inguinal hernia and needed support before surgery. This Tenbon belt truss provided the relief I needed. It’s lightweight and inconspicuous under my clothes, allowing me to enjoy my daily activities with confidence. It has truly been a life saver for me."

"I developed a hernia and wanted something to keep it pushed in. This belt is slim and provides a low-profile fit. After a couple of weeks, I noticed some stretching, but it still maintains compression. For the price, I’m happy with my purchase and even considering a second one soon."
