Epicondylitis pad
Described herein is a truss pad having a base body, wherein the base body comprises a first surface and a second surface opposite the first surface, wherein the first surface of the base body comprises five pressure pads, wherein the first pressure pad is located in the center of a rectangle that is formed by the second pressure pad, the third pressure pad, the fourth pressure pad, and the fifth pressure pad.
Pelvic fracture splint
The pelvic fracture splint includes a first portion having a first end and an opposing second end and a second portion having an opening defined therein, the second portion extending downward from the first portion of the pelvic fracture splint substantially at the mid-section of the first portion. The pelvic fracture splint also includes a plurality of strips (preferably three strips) selectively fastening the opposing ends of the first portion and the second portion of the pelvic fracture splint to secure the pelvic fracture splint around the person's waist or hips and groin. The first portion includes a plurality of splints (rigid supports, preferably six in number) vertically positioned along the first portion at spaced apart positions. The opening in the second portion of the pelvic fracture splint may have a triangular shape to avoid placing any unnecessary pressure on the person's genitals.
ORTHOTIC STRUCTURE SUPPORT BELT
There is disclosed an adjustable lower body orthotic structure supporting belt to be fitted to a user's morphology and pelvic tilt, The belt comprises at least one lateral segment having an associated pivoting attachment that includes a securing mechanism to secure a lower body orthotic structure to the lateral with a variable sagittal orientation, a posterior support segment and a two-part securing segment connected via a locking mechanism to secure the belt to the user.
Pelvic floor muscle supporting aid
Embodiments are utilized to provide a pelvic floor muscle supporting aid that not only supports the pelvic floor muscles but also is effective for preventing a pelvic organ prolapse. An annular part provided so as to be situated at a position corresponding to an outer peripheral portion of the vaginal opening is pulled by a pulling part, so that an interval between left and right side portions situated on the left and right of the vaginal opening is narrowed. Consequently, not only force to press up the pelvic floor muscles from under is applied but also the vaginal opening is narrowed. Consequently, the pelvic organs do not easily slip out. Therefore, it is possible to prevent urinary incontinence and the like by supporting the pelvic floor muscles and at the same time prevent a pelvic organ prolapse.

WEARABLE PERINEUM LEAKAGE CONTROL DEVICE
A perineum control device attachable to the user's undergarment, belt or similar clothing to apply pressure to the perineum to control various conditions including leakages of body fluids from the urethral, anal, and vaginal openings. The device and method comprise one or more front and rear retractors having a retractable cord supporting a bridge or band member positioned against a user's perineum. When a user puts on their undergarment, or tensioned and retractable cords exert a constant and predetermined upward compression force to an attached sanitary article (such as pads/napkins). The force pushes/pulls the article against the perineum increasing the perineum pressure above an abdominal or bladder pressure, which prevents or mitigates leakages and/or prolapses. The device keeps the article in constant close contact with the orifices of the perineum regardless of a user's vigorous movements and regardless of a user's body size, shape, and anatomical differences.
Support garment
Techniques for implementing a support garment with at least one support assembly to provide lateral support to a body part, such as the male genitalia. The techniques may be used to provide immobility of the male genitalia following surgical or therapeutic procedures. A support garment for providing support to a male genitalia includes a lower torso portion including an interior surface and an exterior surface. The lower torso portion further includes a groin portion and at least one support assembly extending alongside at least a portion of a male genital region.
