McDavid475 Adjustable Groin Wrap , Black

Perfect!

I had a groin strain that was getting increasingly painful over two weeks before I finally ordered this wrap. While waiting for delivery, by Sunday the pain was affecting my walking and even my resting (painful laying in bed). It arrived Monday, I wore it for two hours at work (under my trousers was better than over, but you can wear it over clothing). Then the real test - I wore it to CrossFit. I scaled my WOD to account for the groin injury, but was amazed at how much more fluidly I could move, thanks to the wrap. Even better, no increase in groin pain after the WOD. For the first time in a week, the groin pain wasn't noticeable (barely there) when I went to bed. I know it will still take time to heal, but this compression wrap is really minimizing my groin strain pain, and I hope that leads to a more speedy recovery too.I did not notice any slipping or moving of the wrap during my CrossFit work out. The Velcro strap is wide, sturdy. The wrap was very comfortable, worn high on my thigh where the pain was.UPDATE: One year later, I would give this five stars. The groin strain healed, I still get occasional hip pain. I wear this wrap occasionally (as needed for hip pain) both at home and during CrossFit workouts; it provides great support. In our extreme summer heat at the gym, it does occasionally slide from sweat.

Very easy to use with the one strap. It conforms nicely through the groin area. This Product has a slight curvature to help fit on the inside groin area so it will stay high on your thigh It does get warm after hours of wearing, not a big deal, and a little sweaty but it does not move around. I have tried plenty of others and this one by far is the best for comfort, support, non-slip and for use.

So I originally ordered this strap to help with what I thought was a groin pull that turned out to be a hip flexor. It sits up high on the leg and has rubbish backing that keeps it from sliding down your leg - that alone makes it a 5 star product. I have used this to cut my lawn (an hour plus ordeal up a hill) with very little slippage. Now while not working perfectly for my issue IF you have a hamstring pull or strain this is a perfect product to provide support for you.

This wrap allowed me to walk without a very pronounced limp due to a groin pull. I found that when I wrapped it around my thigh, I needed to align the top and bottom layers directly on top of each other. If one was at an angle the wrap would slip down pretty quickly when walking. I was able to wear it all day with no problems. It also alleviated a lot of my pain! Great buy. Highly recommend.

I had a pretty bad groin pull, and after a daily combination of rest, icing, and this compression wrap I have been slowly on the mend. The wrap, alone, wouldn’t do the trick, but I have to believe it has helped. BUT, one big thing to avoid is using the wrap directly on your skin like you can with an Ace bandage or knee brace. I wore it directly on my skin for a day, and although it felt fine while wearing it, I found a nickel sized blister on my thigh when removing it, and the entire area of skin covered by the wrap has had an itchy red imprint on it for days! I have since been wearing the wrap over whatever I’m wearing as I continue to ice and rest, as well. But I should have never worn it directly on my skin, and there is no such warning that comes with the product.

I had been using self adhesive wraps from the store to wrap a sprained groin muscle which I injured while playing pickleball.It has been a challenge to do any kind of strengthening exercises. I bought this wrap and must say it has been great. It really provides support while exercising the groin back to health. I would highly recommend this product and wish I had purchased it three weeks ago when I sustained the injury. Tomorrow I am going to use it while I am playing pickleball.

My daughter pulled her groin doing some trapping drills during basketball practice, we bought this brace and she never missed a beat!! It gave her the confidence in her leg to continue her intensity and eventually she was able to quit wearing it!! One funny thing, it made her sweat directly on her skin, so she would wear it over her spandex!!
