I cannot find any nice abdominal binders for sale. Anyone have any suggestions? I heard of someone with a "glow in the dark" binder... that would be cool.

It's to help him cough and looks too. The hospital put one on him and we have kept it up ever since. I'm really not even sure if he needs it. It does help him cough al lot better.

Have you tried having him not wear it even for a few hours a day, or when he just stays in the house? His body may alredy be aclimated to not needing it anymore.
