Each of you should have a size and shape of holding pad especially adapted to the needs of your case—each should have a truss put together especially for you. Else there can be no such thing as continuous, comfortable holding of the rupture.
So you see the absurdity of trying to get a comfortably fitting truss at a drug-store, or of expecting to get one that will do much good.
Might as well expect all men to be properly fitted in a shoe store which carries only one size and shape of shoe. Or in a hat store which carries only one size of hat. Might as well expect both near-sighted and far-sighted men to see better if both wore the same kind of glasses. And might as well expect common window-glass to improve the eye-sight as to expect common drug-store trusses to do any good.
Just Like Getting Glasses
There is just as much difference in different men's ruptures as in the size and shape of their feet or heads.
Just as much variation in rupture as in failing eyesight. And everybody knows that one man may need very powerful glasses, while another needs glasses which magnify only slightly; one may need a double lens, while another needs only a single lens; one may need convex lenses, while another needs concave.
All this doesn't mean that it is hard to fit ruptured people, but merely that ample provision must be made for the different requirements. As a shoe store does for men's feet.
We have found it necessary to make the Cluthe Holding Pads in 115 different styles, shapes and sizes. And frequently we have to make a special style or size.
Thus, no matter what your rupture is like, we can fit you with a Cluthe Truss—one put together especially for you—one that will meet your requirements just as well as a shoe store can fit you with shoes, or an oculist fit you with exactly the kind of glasses you need.
