ABSTRACT:
An adjustable protective device for positioning on a human body, expanding the abdominal region so as to space a garment supporting the belt and/or a belt integrally formed with a garment from the abdominal area in the general area of the groin. The device is of a size spacing its cushioned ends substantially on either side of the groin area and is positioned between the human body and/or a garment such as an underear brief and a belt with respect to the abdominal area including the groin so as to permit the wearer to sit down with the belt in spaced relation to the body and allow the abdomen to move outwardly and prevent pressure on the abdomen and more particularly on the bladder and/or any healing surgical incision in that area such as a prostate, a bladder or urethra duct operation would cause.
