This was my third brace after a fall on my lower back. I have minor fractures at L1 and L5 and have been told to support my lumbar region with a strong brace. When I went to the local medical device clinic, they sold me two braces, neither of which stayed in place or relieved pain, and because they didn't fit the body, they didn't give me the support I needed. . The main problem I've found is that most women's braces don't have an integrated shape down the mid-back through the waist and lower back. Most braces on the market are "universal" with Velcro and strong drawstrings that need to be tightened in a specific area. So if you have a waist and hips, when you sit down or engage in an activity, the brace will lift and thus not provide the support it should. Most of these back braces are so bulky and thick that they are also very hot and uncomfortable to wear. This Mercase splint was ordered as a quick fix until a more permanent splint can be purchased. But in fact, this is by far the best fitting brace I've tried since (including 2 other braces) and none have surpassed these Mercase braces for support, pain relief, or comfort. The Mercase bandage has a mesh back with supports to make it more comfortable. The back of the Mercase bandage is slightly curved to fit the middle of the back. The lower back is supported by strong elastic bands that allow for a wider and more comfortable fit. When I sit, nothing goes up. I wear it for several days with no discomfort or heat. The only flaw I can find is that I want the corset to be longer at the very bottom of the back to support the sacrum area, which I think is also important when treating lower back injuries.
