ABSTRACT:
A therapeutic leg elevator having a first open-topped portion contoured to support the leg of a patient from approximately the ankle to at least the calf of the patient, and a foot portion connected approximately to the perpendicularly horizontal portion, the foot portion having an opening facing the horizontal portion so as to receive the patient's foot, the opening having a base which the patient's foot sole may contact, the opening being contoured below the patient's heel so the heel does not contact the foot portion, the opening extending upwardly beyond the end of the patient's toes and being upwardly bounded by a protective cover which is part of said foot portion, whereby the tops of the patient's toes and bottom of his heel, and optionally the sole of his foot, are protected while said foot portion is supported.
