Hernia BeltA hernia belt or truss is a garment designed to press on the usual location of an inguinal hernia. The idea is to help keep the hernia from getting worse and becoming strangulated. Hernia belts are are no longer generally used; surgery is recommended instead. A hernia belt is different from an athletic supporter. An athletic supporter will not help with an inguinal hernia. A hernia belt is not a substitute for an athletic supporter.
