Abstract:
1. A unitary elongated support device for supporting a body part with a bony prominence which is susceptible to developing a sore or wound comprising: a memory foam fill material having a rolled shape which is generally cylindrical and is formed by rolling along its longitudinal axis; a flexible cover for holding and maintaining the cylindrical shape having a closable opening disposed therein for inserting the memory foam fill material within; and releasable fastening means comprising tie strips positioned on the flexible cover for securing and positioning the unitary elongated support device for supporting around a bony prominence in said body part; whereby said elongated support device is pliable and easy to manipulate to form a U-shape to provide support around a bony prominence so that the bony prominence is elevated above when supported in order to avoid any sore or wound from developing as a consequence of constantly resting on a surface.
