I have 4 herniated lower back discs. I couldn't cook dinner without crying. I tried this back brace the first day, and it hurt like Hell. However, today I removed the removable lumbar triangle and gave it another shot. I am happy to report that not only was I able to cook dinner for my family with no pain, I emptied the dishwasher AND took out the trash! Now I'm playing cards like a normal human being. I got this brace because I have a trip planned to Ireland (the land of my people) in June. I didn't think I would be able to go. Now, I believe there is hope. Thank you soooo much! UPDATE: This back brace saved my butt on holiday. Made it through 10 days of airports, trains and non-stop walking all over Ireland and Scotland. The trick is not to make it too tight (or too loose). Again, I also removed the removable lumbar support. I didn't even get double screened at the airport with it on. Fantastic!
