BraceAbility Broken Rib Brace for Cracked Ribs – Rib Cage Support Belt for Bruised, Fractured or Dislocated Ribs Protection, Compression Wrap and Chest Support – Fits Men and Women (Plus Size)

Easy to put on, comfortable to wear for hours
Great product! I have been suffering from a sprain since weeks, and this instantly provided great support. It’s comfortable to wear the whole day and even while sleeping. There’s a notch in the front for women which is great. It’s easy to put on, and there’s hardly any adjustments required.

Immediate, comforting relief from rib injury
This wrap is extremely comforting, gentle, and easy to use. The adjustable fit allows for the exact level of support needed, and immediately reduced my rib pain – it just takes several tries initially to get it right on the first use. As an active adult, it allowed me to resume my life while reminding me to be careful – thank you!

Perfect Cut and Support for Fractured Ribs!!
5 stars, would give 10 if possible!  It gives fabulous support and comfortable to wear.  I had previously been using a wide ace bandage which curled/rolled, moved up and down. Once in place, it stays put… good for walking around sitting but would not recommend while sleeping (when your body flattens out it seems to tighten the brace). Others have complained it is difficult to open the velcro.  I didn’t find that to be a problem, my ribs were fractured not broken and perhaps that’s harder to do with broken ribs?  Can’t speak to that issue.  Love the design, it’s higher in back and cut lower beneath ribs.  the vertical velcro strip allows it to be tightened on an angle which provides a tighter or looser top/bottom portion. Tip:  I generally loosen brace when sitting because the body mass seems to compact a bit.

Best Brace I found! Well worth the money
I worked in a career that was very physically and mentally demanding and was injured more times than I can count. After having multiple chest surgeries in under 2 years I was tired of trying to wrap those huge elastic bandages that were put on at the hospital by Nurses. At home it was just me. So I found these and several other brands on Amazon, the first binder I bought literally came apart unraveling in mere days. But then I read the information on these and thought why not? They are listed as rib brace for fracture ribs which I’ve had before so I figured it would work on the chest just as easy. I got the first one I ordered quickly and tried it immediately. I ordered another one on my next order! It was comfortable, it did not fall apart, I bought it a size larger due to swelling in my pectoral muscles and could start it on right side, rap it all the way around and adjust the tightness easily and would go across my chest again and I pushed the Velcro down on my left side. So I had two layers across the chest and one all the way around. It did not slide down like latex bandages, it didn’t get tighter or looser unless I adjusted it, it was wide enough to hold chest bandages in place and I hardly even noticed it was on. I was very happy with quality, comfort and ordered the extra so I could wash them and let one dry while using the other. I’ve had them for over a year and they are still in great shape and Velcro still sticks fine any were I attach it. I also order the same brand abdominal binder because they were wider for my back which I have Degenerative Disc Disease and my vertebrae are crushing my bones, I’ve lost 2 inches in height and I have horrible back pain. The chest binder actually worked on my lower back too but I wanted something a little wider due to the vertebrae were hurting in a larger area. I actually bought one two big the first time but reordered a size less and they are same quality. Needless to say but I found this brand of brace that works great, easy to use and I am going to buy a few more so I have them if I ever need more. You won’t be able to find a better brace for the money. These well exceeded my expectations and I am a customer for life. I want to buy extra because it seems every time I find something that works, I can’t find again when needed. Some of my surgeries were difficult due to the chest tubes and drains so I would like to have a few more so I have enough to change out while washing one that may have been soiled while changing bandages underneath daily. Hope this helps!

This is basically just a bandage made a tiny bit thicker. If you have a belly then it’s going to roll up. In my opinion it’s not worth it.

This is a really great little rib wrap. It’s well made. It’s velcro area is very professionally done and once it adheres, it doesn’t open. I’m impressed with the design. Fits comfortably under breasts. The only thing I found is, depending on where you fracture or break your rib, you might need a shoulder strap. I fractured my 9th rib in a fall, and when I put the wrap on it’s perfect, but I need a strap to keep it exactly as I positioned it, so my rib doesn’t feel like it’s slipping upon movement, until it heals. You can wrap the wrap more tightly to prevent it from moving down slightly, but realistically one can’t wrap a rib wrap super tightly to hold up the wrap. Because if one does, it can really hurt the injured area as I tried that, and ouch. So, if I didn’t have to move a lot, just walk, or slowly up down on couch, it was really, really good. But if I had to move more, like filling orders as I have a small business, the wrap would move down ever so slightly, past it’s initial position. Which is I needed a shoulder strap to keep it up. But it is a really great wrap. Well made. As said, it depends on where you fracture or break your rib. I felt my fracture on my left side and back due to it being my 9th rib. Different rib injuries won’t require a shoulder strap. So, thankyou. Pleased with my purchase. (Because this is a well made rib wrap, I’m going to take it to a seamstress, to get a seamstress to fashion a shoulder strap to it. A strap that can be put on, or kept off, depending on the rib injury.)
