ABSTRACT:
A device adapted to be worn by a user to protect an elongated portion of the user's body. The device comprises a support member positionable on a user's body adjacent to the elongated portion of the user's body to be protected. A pair of anatomically linear load-bearing members are included. The load-bearing members are coupled in laterally spaced relationship with respect to the support to define an elongated space therebetween. The load-bearing members and space therebetween are essentially parallel with each other and parallel with the elongated portion of the user's body to be protected. Further included are retention means to maintain the support member in position on the user's body with the space between the load-bearing members overlying the elongated portion of the user's body to be protected.
