You could try an abdominal binder.  If you like.

I am almost 10 years post injury and it seems some things change continuously. I did experience problems with my catheter and occasionally still have problems with it clogging up for some unknown reason. Going five years without a bowel incident is pretty darn good. I could say that I went a long also, but every incident I have had has usually been the result of my bowel regimen not being completed properly. Over the last few years I have noticed that despite being only a couple of pounds heavier I am having more and more difficulty trying to prevent (what I now believe to be the inevitable) Quad gut. Just when I think I have about everything figured out, something changes and I am learning all over again. On the brighter side, maybe this prevents boredom.
