Trusses merely brace these muscles; but do not strengthen them—on the contrary, the gouging of the ordinary truss pad often increases this weakness, 89 it tends to shut off blood circulation. STUART'S ADHESIF PLAPAO-PADS are entirely different—being mechanico-chemico applicators—made self-adhesive purposely to keep the herbal muscle - tonic called "Plapao" continuously applied to the affected parts, and to minimize dangerous slipping and painful chafing; also to eliminate torturing, harmful pressure.
