Guest guest Posted February 10, 2003 Report Share Posted February 10, 2003 Good Morning, My friend in FL who has lost about 230 lbs told me that wearing a binder helps with movement and keeping the scar from widening. My dr's office did not have a binder so I went to a store for large clothes and bought a high top girdle 5 sizes too big that came up high to cover the incision. When I wore this I was able to sleep in the bed. After I got out of the hospital I slept in a recliner for over a week. Does anyone know the pros and cons of a binder?
