Underworks Vulvar Varicosity and Prolapse Support Brief with Groin Compression Bands and Hot/Cold Therapy Gel Pad - Black - 2x

We asked what garment would we make to help women that suffer from vulvar varicosities whether during pregnancy or not that suffer from prolapses and that would help those that have hernias or may get them? We looked around and saw what was available and we said no that’s not it!. We need a garment that is just that a garment a brief a panty that may be worn everyday just the same way women wear their regular underwear already. So we went to work and created it. The Underworks Vulvar Varicosity Support Brief is made to be highly effective in alleviating pain and reducing symptoms associated with vaginal swelling. Also known as vulvar varicosities these are varicose veins at the outer surface of the female genitalia (vulva). They occur most often during pregnancy. As a result blood pools in the veins of your lower extremities as well as your vulvar region causing vulvar varicosities or Lymphedema. This brief has two overlapping bands built into the it that run through the pubic area providing compression and relief from vulvar swelling and overlap exactly where a floor of support for the pelvic area is created at the bottom. This helps in relieving prolapse such as Cystocele (when the bladder protrudes the vagina creating a bulge) Rectocele (when the rectum bulges into the back wall of the vagina) and Uterine prolapse (when the uterus drops into the vagina). The garment is secured at the waist with a drawstring waistband thereby allowing for a lot of flexibility in locating the garment and tightness desired. An inguinal hernia occurs in the abdomen near the groin area. They develop when fatty or intestinal tissues push through a weakness in the abdominal wall. This brief is effective in creating an artificial firm lower abdominal wall of support that alleviates the pain caused by existing hernias such as Inguinal hernia and Femoral hernia and to help in prevention of future hernias. And this brief even goes further than the model 523 by including a proprietary hot cold therapy pad. Hot/Cold therapy has been found to be very effective in easing pain and reducing swelling. For cold therapy simply place the Hot/Cold therapy pad in the freezer for 20-30 minutes remove and insert into the built in crotch sleeve and wear the garment for as long as desired. For hot therapy place the pad in a bowl of water and place the bowl in the microwave oven for 30 seconds. The Hot/Cold therapy pad also provides additional support in the area.
