Variteks 601 One-Sided Inguinal Hernia Truss

The Variteks 601 one-sided inguinal hernia truss is designed to provide targeted support to the groin area before or after surgical treatment of a hernia. Separate versions are available for the left and right sides.

The truss features a specially shaped soft pad that applies controlled pressure over the site of the hernia. It provides localised support and is designed to minimise unnecessary discomfort when correctly positioned.

The strong elastic belt fits around the pelvis, while an additional adjustable strap passes between the legs to keep the pad securely positioned. The construction allows the level of support to be adjusted according to the wearer’s build and medical instructions.

Before surgery, the truss may help limit enlargement of the hernia. Following surgery, it provides additional support to the recovering area. It should only be used after examination and recommendation by a healthcare professional. The price is for one piece.

Size selection and use

Select the left- or right-side version according to the location of the hernia. Correct sizing is important for secure pad positioning and comfortable wear. Select the size according to the manufacturer’s current sizing chart.

Unless instructed otherwise by a healthcare professional, the truss should be applied while lying down and after the hernia has been reduced. The pad should be positioned directly over the affected area without causing pain, numbness or excessive pressure.

This product does not treat the underlying cause of a hernia and does not replace prescribed surgery. Do not use it over a painful, hard or irreducible hernia. Seek urgent medical attention if you experience sudden severe pain, swelling, nausea or vomiting.

Following surgery, use the truss only with your surgeon’s approval. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions regarding application, wearing time, washing and product care.
