ABSTRACT:
The devices have various features including balloons that are joined by a line of folding parallel with the groin line and a wrap for holding the balloons that has a similar line of folding, but is unconstrained between abdomen- and thigh-wrap portions so as to allow the person to sit up and lie down while balloon pressure is maintained on the groin. Another feature is a stretchable layer of wrap that includes zig-zag elements that allow limited stretch and then prevent further stretch. Rigid covers can be used over the balloons. The balloons are also used with shorts that can be worn by the person.
