No tight clothing for me that creates any pressure on my lower abdomen. I don't close the button of my trouser and leave the zipper down. Therefore I need to wear braces so my pants do not drop 💩.

Yes hate anything too fitted around the waist. I live in leggings and choose elasticated waists on trousers or skirts. Nightmare

I, too, have never been able to tolerate anything tight round my waist and wear leggings and skirts with loose elastic rather than anything with buttons or zips.

Yes i cannot wear anything tight around my waist. I love trousers like joggers with a drawstring that you can adjust to how your tummy is doing that day.

YES I do even jogging bottoms and underwear is a nightmare even though I wear paper pants( TENA ) and they cost me a small fortune so I spend lots of my time looking online 4 the best deals even being a women everything tight around my tummy hurts and is so uncomfortable trying 2 sit stand or even walk is a struggle in it's self after going toilet is a problem as no matter how much cream I put on my bum hurts as no sooner I get or think I've finished and apply cream I have 2 go again it's a nasty circle Doc's don't really understand what we have 2 put up with and you only get a 10 minute slot with them I even try 2 write things down as best as I can 4 them only 2 find when I get home that I forgot 2 tell them something or another just hope you can get some relief from it Take Care
