What should I do if the belt causes skin irritation or the bulge becomes painful?

If the belt causes irritation or marked discomfort, stop using it immediately. Do not wear it over damaged or inflamed skin, as this can worsen the condition. If the bulge itself becomes painful, changes colour, feels hard, or can no longer be gently reduced, these are signs that you should seek medical attention promptly.

The belt is not a substitute for medical evaluation. If you notice any of these changes, contact a physician or orthopaedic specialist before continuing to use the belt. They can determine whether the belt is still appropriate or if a different approach is needed.

If you have a chronic condition, are pregnant, or are breastfeeding, consult a specialist before using this belt. It is not intended to diagnose, treat, or prevent any disease.
