Pain 18 years after Hysterectomy when lifting lightweight objects.

It's been about 18 years after my wife had her Hysterectomy. She was told her weight limitations were about 50 lbs to lift. She has pain after doing housework where she may have to lift or push objects that are about 20 or 30 Lbs. She will then have to take 2 or 3 days off to heal. My question; is there a support that she can wear like maybe an elastic pants or brace that would give her support in the groin area? I am looking around trying to find such an item. She is a very private person and doesn't know I'm writing this.

She is 72 years old.

Thanks in advance
