Abdominal binders are compression belts that encircle the abdomen, commonly used to augment the recovery process after abdominal surgery like exploratory laparotomy, cesarean section, bariatric surgery, hysterectomy, or spinal surgery.

Back pain is unfortunate but very common in pregnant women. The use of a maternity support belt can provide benefits like less backache, reduced pressure on the bladder, fewer varicosities, and swelling in the pelvic region. It is also used as back support or post-operative belt.
