Had ankle surgery and this was probably my best purchase in support of that. I have had other medical procedures in the past where the instructions were to elevate your leg. I had a huge problem with using pillows for this task, and the only way I could manage it was to tilt the whole bed (which gave me a headache). Using this support pillow I have absolutely no problem. Stays in place on the bed, keeps the leg in place, elevates just the right amount, and also works great holding an ice pack under the knee. I'm several weeks after my surgery, and I still use it to get some relief after being upright for too long. One small complaint is that small chunks are starting to come off of mine. It doesn't impact the performance, but I think this is really just a once time use item. That said, I highly recommend.
