Bandage to reduce umbilical hernias for babies and infants
The baby is connected to the mother by the umbilical cord. When the child is born and after the umbilical cord is cut, there is a small opening in the abdominal muscles that allows the umbilical cord to pass through. As the child grows after birth, this opening in the abdominal muscles closes. However, sometimes these muscles do not join completely and a small opening remains. In this case, intestine or fat passes through the weak spot or hole. This causes a lump near or in the belly button. Your child's belly button may appear swollen.
Umbilical hernia occurs in 10 to 20% of babies. It is most visible when the baby cries and may become smaller or disappear when the baby is calm.
When the umbilical hernia persists up to 4-5 years, surgical intervention is necessary. Until this age, conservative treatment using an umbilical hernia belt with silicone pads is essential.
ACTIVdistance is a 3-layer lamination, consisting of comfort foam and 2 layers of non-elastic polyamide. ACTIVdistance is non-elastic, which improves the compression of the umbilical hernia. The foam inside makes our fabric very soft and comfortable. It is very safe for newborns. ACTIVdistance is self-gripping on both sides, which allows a wide range of adjustments.
In addition, our children's umbilical hernia belt is equipped with a soft and safe silicone pad that gently pushes the hernia back. It has an anatomical shape and fits perfectly to the navel area.
The wraparound design allows for a wide circumferential fit. Available in one size. The ACTIVdistance fabric is slightly elastic and provides maximum comfort when the baby breathes and moves. High efficiency and safety guarantee.
