QUESTION:
I just had some abdominal surgery. My surgeon recommend that I should be in a high waisted, long legged, and zippered garment.
I did some research into wearing this type of garment and I had heard that you can become comfortable with the support to the point where you will not want to be without being in a garment daily, can that happen?

ANSWER:
Hi Tim,
That’s an excellent question. The garment provides a great sense of security and feeling of held-togetherness, so yes it can be uncomfortable to go without the garment during the first couple months post-op. However, that feeling fades as you heal, and you should feel totally secure without a garment as you fully recover from your surgery.
Here are some garments for abdominal surgery that you may like:
Zippered Abdominal Garment (840)
Zippered Above-Knee Abdominal Garment (743)
If you have any questions of need help selecting a size, please feel free to email or call me directly.
Best regards,
