DMI Wedge Pillow, Leg Pillow, Bolster Pillow, FSA Eligible Incline Pillow for Leg Elevation, Snoring, Circulation, Pregnancy, Sciatica, Leg Rest or Foot Elevation, Blue, 28.9 x 19.5 x 10

i was plesantly surprised at this pillow when it arrived. Its pretty darn thick which is a good thing. I have edema caused by diabetis and the other pillow i was using just didnt support the legs very good. This one is wide and very firm. I used it already for about 4 or 5 days and already have reduced the water swelling in my legs by over 50 percent. The pillow is wide enough where i can put both legs on it and watch tv or go to sleep. I wasnt thrilled about paying so much money but after i used it the price seemed very reasonable becuase going to the doctor is 35 dollars or more my share cost. I would rather help my legs naturally by reducing the salt intake and then also using this pillow then i would going to the doctor and asking for a stronger directic that over works the kidneys. I already have reduced the edema so much that my feet on the bottom feel flat. I have never had a problem like this my whole life but when you turn 64 i guess its time to pay the fiddler. THe other alternative is to wear compression socks and i dont want to mess with those, they are a pain to put on. Its like stuffing a elephant leg into a size extra small sock. after about 8 months of wondering what to do this became the answer. The bad part about it, is its so big that when you do put it on a queen size bed it takes up the whole bed seems like it anyway. I did see another type where you could inflate it with air and it wouldnt swell up so big but i think the main thing is this one works and overall a person doesnt have to use it every day becuase it works so well. Overall i rate is five stars.

I looked around for this type of product at various other websites. I found that most items were too expensive for what I wanted to spend. I needed to put my feet and legs up above my heart (doctors orders for diabetes). This item is perfect size for me. I am 6'2" and my leg length is 36 inches. I think this is made for a taller person. Look at the picture and imagine that your thighs are laying on the slanted part of the foam and your legs, from the knees down, are laying on the top part. If your legs from your crotch (or buttocks) to your knees are not long enough for your knees to be at the top of the slant, then this item will be too tall for you.If you are over 6 feet tall and you are looking for relief for swollen feet, legs or both then this is the best deal around. The blue cover is sort of rough feeling, definitely not a 300 thread count sheet or above (ha ha) but seriously that can be remedied. I just lay one of my king size pillow cases over the top of it. It definitely raises my legs and feet above my heart, even when I prop my head up to watch TV.It is stiff foam, not memory foam, but still has a little give to it.The measurements of this is 13 inches from the bottom of the slant to the top, then 21 inches from the top of the slanted part to the end of the plateau (flat part) and from the bottom to the top (of the flat part) it is 9.5 inches tall.Hope it works for you like it does for me.3/20/2013 I am still using this wedge and it has held up well. I would buy it again if I needed another one. Highly recommend.

I have had issues with poor circulation in my legs for years (genetic) and also can sit in a chair with my feet on the ground too long, or drive to long because my feet, ankles and lower legs all will become swollen! Mix in PMS and we’re taking allot of fun here (joking of course). I just received today PERFECT timing, as I’m currently dealing with swollen legs, ankles and feet and bloating all over due to PMS and horrible lower back pain and I had to take 4 Advil’s to help but I literally JUST received this in the mail (a much needed gift to myself) and also I have my heat pad on and have a cup of hot tea, my favorite book and comfy blanket and feel amazing!!! That literally is an understatement! My legs feel amazing and it feels like I can feel the water flowing down from my feet into my legs and know soon that I will need to go to the bathroom. Sooooo comfortable and I’m a tall gal so this has allot of space and room for my legs and the cushion is top notch firm! I’ve been laying my legs/feet on now for over an hour and it’s still super firm and plump and working wonders!

I'm 5'10 and got the 10 inch model. I have tried a few things to help with my sciatica pain (i.e. seat pillows, compression garments, stretches). Not sure if there is a cure for sciatica aside from physical therapy, but i can't engage in that at the moment due to the pandemic (trying to keep distance from everyone and everything). I experience slight pain running up and down my right thigh throughout the day. It is a hard feeling to describe, but its just a feeling that my thigh is not operating as normal. It is lite, but there are moments where it is sharper than usual. I mostly feel it when sleeping and trying to turn from one side of the mattress to the other. Due to the pain, i end up rotating myself to the other side of the bed very slowly.I got this after reading a review that pillow wedges help with sciatica pain. This pillow is to really help me with my posture, to sleep straight in my bed versus sleeping on my side and to help with blood circulation. I feel like i hunch over to help avoid pain to my thigh. As noted, i feel slight pain as if my ham string was ripped, pulled apart, or in the process of being ripped and pulled apart in opposite directions. I got this and i am very pleased with it. It is sturdy and well made. The polyester fabric feels nice against the leg. Nice and cool feeling. I can rub my hands on this material all day.It does help provide slight relief when i wake up in the morning. It is NOT a cure to get rid of sciatica pain. I just wish there was a cure for sciatica because i cannot imagine using this for the rest of my life. Regardless, it helps slightly so that is always a plus.
