Abstract

An apparatus (1) for supporting a leg (10), comprises a receptacle (2), and a support (3) attached to the receptacle (2) and including a base (4) and a strut member (5). The receptacle (2) is configured so that a portion of the leg (10) is supported in a non-vertical orientation and secured with straps (16 and 17), with an angle between the receptacle (2) and the support (3) adjustable by an angle adjusting device (6). The apparatus (1) enables a person's leg (10) to be supported at a lower half below the knee (18) as shown, or at an upper half above the knee with thigh protruding forward (not shown). Hence a patient can bear weight or their leg, while keeping weight from the lower half of the leg (10), with the lower half in a position required for a leg injury to recover.
