Alex Orthopedic Leg Wedge Foam Elevation for Swelling Relief

Swelling in the legs and feet from surgery, injury, or prolonged sitting can disrupt sleep and slow recovery. The Alex Orthopedic Leg Wedge elevates your lower body to promote healthy circulation, reduce fluid buildup, and provide all-night comfort with polyurethane foam construction and a removable, washable cover—available in three sizes to match your bed and body positioning needs.

Key Features

• Firm polyurethane foam core maintains consistent elevation angle without sagging or flattening over time.
• Three size options (6", 8", and 10" heights) let you choose the optimal incline for your comfort and medical needs.
• Removable, machine-washable cover simplifies hygiene maintenance and extends product lifespan in home or clinical settings.
• Wide 20" x 25" surface area accommodates both legs comfortably, preventing slipping during sleep or rest.
• Lightweight portable design moves easily between bed, couch, and recliner for versatile positioning throughout the day.

FAQs

Q: Which height should I choose for post-surgery leg elevation?

A: Most physicians recommend 8" or 10" height to position legs above heart level for optimal circulation. Consult your healthcare provider for personalized guidance based on your condition.

Q: Can I use this wedge under my knees instead of my calves?

A: Yes—the 6" or 8" height works well for knee support while sleeping on your back. The 10" height is typically too steep for comfortable knee positioning.

Q: How often should I wash the cover?

A: Wash every 1-2 weeks during regular use, or immediately after spills. Keeping a spare pillowcase over the wedge between washes can extend cover lifespan.

Q: Will the foam flatten over time with nightly use?

A: Polyurethane foam resists compression better than standard pillow foam. Rotate the wedge weekly to distribute weight evenly and maintain consistent elevation for years.

Q: Does this wedge fit a standard queen or king bed?

A: The 20" x 25" footprint fits comfortably on any bed size without overhanging edges. Place it horizontally across the mattress to support both legs simultaneously.
