ABSTRACT:
Support, particularly for inguinal hernias, comprises a "roll-on" belt to which a pressure pad for bearing on the area of the hernia is indirectly attached by an arrangement including a rigid stay member. A strap extends from a lower edge of the pad between the wearer's legs to keep the pad pressed against the body by reaction with the rigid stay even when movement tends to displace the adjacent part of the belt away therefrom e.g. when sitting or stooping.
