Abstract: A guard for protecting an implantable port is provided. The guard includes a cover that is structured to protect a user's implantable port by substantially covering the port without the cover coming into contact with a user's skin above the port. The cover can be a rounded, triangular-shaped cover having peripheral edges that bow outwardly from the center to allow the cover to be placed over circular or triangular-shaped ports. The cover can also be releasably coupled to an adhesive base that is structured to adhere to the user's skin around the port, thus allowing the cover to remain in place on the user's skin. The guard may further include a housing to support the cover, the housing being coupled to the adhesive base prior to the adhesive base being adhered to the user's skin around the port. The cover may then be detachably connected to the housing.
