Elevation Pillow Bed Wedge for Leg Support and Recovery

The Elevation Pillow Bed Wedge is an essential foam wedge designed specifically for individuals experiencing various leg-related issues, such as ankle injuries, leg fractures, foot ulcers, post-surgical recovery, and paralysis.

Primary Functionality

This innovative wedge elevates the legs by 15 cm while maintaining a physiologically bent position for the lower limbs. Its design is specifically tailored for recovery following surgeries on the leg, knee, foot, or ankle, facilitating optimal healing post-traction of the tibia and femur. By elevating the injured leg and knee joints, this pillow helps immobilize affected areas while promoting enhanced blood circulation, thereby minimizing swelling and alleviating pain.

3. Optimal Elevation: The pillow’s supportive design elevates the legs to a height of 15 cm at an angle of 30°, effectively maintaining the natural curvature of the lower extremities.

4. Versatile Positioning: This wedge is ideal for those recovering from lower extremity surgeries such as fractures of the tibia and fibula, as well as femoral fractures, providing necessary support in both supine and prone positions.

5. Targeted Recovery Support: Suitable for patients recovering from surgeries like fibula repair, femur replacement, ACL reconstruction, and knee replacement, this supportive pad plays a crucial role in ensuring comfort and pain relief.
