BraceAbility Broken Rib Brace for Women and Men - Rib Protector Compression Wrap, Chest Support Belt for Bruised, Fractured, Dislocated Ribs, Costochondritis Relief, Sternum Brace (Female - White)

My sister broke a few ribs falling and the doc told her to get this. She is wearing it and says the confort is great and helps stabilize her ribs. So we would buy it again for sure.

This is the 3rd rib wrap I have bought and this one turned out perfect. It’s easy to put on and adjust the tension by yourself, quite the contrary to others I bought. I needed my wife’s help getting the right tension on the others. This wrap is comfortable on top of everything else. Buy it.

Having recently suffered a rib injury, I ordered this product due to the recommendations on Amazon and received as scheduled. Unfortunately, the velcro was folded over and was virtually impossible to pull apart to fasten the ace bandage properly. I contacted customer service by phone. The associate offered apologies and suggested that another person might be able to assist in separating the velcro to enable proper fastening. I suggested that the company might consider putting some non-sticky tape over the fastener portion as a preventative measure to prevent this situation. After we spoke some adrenalin must have kicked in because I succeeded in pulling it apart (after breaking two nails). Once properly fastened, it provided significant pain relief and was comfortable to wear for many hours. Would recommend, but beware that an adrenalin rush or other assistance may be required.

If you have sore or damaged ribs this works very well at holding them comfortably and supporting them. Finally something that works for us that have injured one or more ribs. Works well for women.

Comfortable to wear- for both short, and long term, stays in place, and is good for a petite female where so many of these braces are meant for larger adults. The velcro is truly a strong one meant to stay in place, and it shows! So far it is working wonderfully! I'm very happy so far with my purchase and will order another as a backup for travel.**UPDATE:The brace material is still soft, and comfortable no matter how tight I wear it, or length of time. However, once the brace is on and closed, the velcro is nearly impossible to pull apart. It has an extremely strong grip, which, with my arthritic hands, leaves me in major pain attempting to remove it. While it's a good thing for it to stay on so firmly, it's also a detriment to those with limited hand mobility, or dexterity. If it weren't for this, I'd buy more of them.Because of this, I'll give it a 3 now, which is a shame. Good product. Too tough to remove.

I give this a 5 star becuase it provided several days of support on my bruised ribs before I just had to take it off.Easy to put on, and long enough to wrap around me, which is so often not the case with things like these.

I tried and like it. I didn’t wear it for long period but it worked

If you have possible damaged/cracked ribs, the compression band can help.My upper rib cage on one side was/is damaged but feeling better as more time passes. Luckily I don’t think there were any seriously broken bones,But I’m glad I got this compression band for temporary relief and so I can still swing the golf club a bit!
