An abdominal binder is a type of supportive garment designed to provide compression and support to the abdominal area. It is commonly used after surgeries such as abdominal, cesarean, or hernia surgery to help reduce swelling, promote healing, and provide stability. The binder is typically made of elastic material and can be adjusted for comfort. It helps to support the muscles and tissues of the abdomen, reduce pain, and improve posture during recovery.
