    Default Lower Abdominal Strain - LOWER Pannus Support Garment Recommendations Needed

    I am almost 7 years post gastric sleeve and I have had large weight regain. I strained some lower abdominal muscles at work when picking up a heavy box, and feel like I need some lower stomach belly Pannus support. I have thought about whether Spanx or some kind of a plus size pregnancy support would help hold some of my lower stomach weight steady so that my muscles can heal? My doctor does not feel any kind of hernia.

    I have a big belly below my belly button that I want to support.. maybe the weight is just pulling on those muscles that are trying to heal?

    Any recommendations or links????

    THANKS SO MUCH!!!!!

    I would ask a doctor or nurse at your bariatric clinic. I don't know!
