I too had to wear a back brace and felt 'naked' without it. Cindylou is right, other people, unaware of possible disabilities in others, can and do bump into you. You also can misstep and bump into a door, wall, or if you have a dog that doesn't care about letting water drip from her mouth as she walks away from her water bowl, you can slip when stepping in the water.
Things happen and the brace protects your back.
