Bed Wedge Pillow are specially designed with an incline to provide proper elevation and to keep your affected swollen areas (facial, upper, mid, or lower body areas) comfortably elevated in a 45 degree angle that helps reduce swelling and enables optimal blood circulation to all the vital healing areas. Depending on the area(s) that is swollen, you may need to keep such area(s) elevated. For patients with swelling in the upper body region, we offer wedges that are specifically designed to keep the head, arm, back, chest, and abdominal areas comfortably elevated. Similarly, patients having lower body procedures can use knee and leg wedges that keep swollen areas the legs, thighs, calves, and feet area comfortably elevated. Beyond using wedges during healing from a surgery or injury, these products can be used in everyday life to elevate the head for breathing comfort, pressure and muscle tension relief, and as a treatment for medical conditions such as acid reflux/indigestion and hietal hernia. Many patients find bed wedges to be a superior and more comfortable elevation solution compared to putting oneself above pillows on a bed. The advantages of wedges compared to pillows are that they are sturdy, you do not have to worry about slipping off as you would with pillows, you have far less tension and stress on your body, and you do not have to periodically rearrange the wedge as you would with pillows that shift around and fall.
