摘要：
A lower limb support device 400 for a lower limb comprising a calf 480, a heel 482 and a foot 484, comprises a padded member 410 for supporting an extended area of the lower limb wherein the padded member extends along an axis of the lower limb so as to allow the heel to protrude without contacting the padded member. In a first embodiment a casing 420 comprising a leg portion 430, which supports the padded member and holds it fast around the calf, and a foot portion 440 linked to the leg portion is provided, the leg portion and padded member being configured for releasable attachment (e.g. using straps 412) around a calf of a user. In a second embodiment a compression stocking/sock (1310, Fig 13) is provided, the padded member (1320, Fig 13) being attached to the compression sock and forming, in use, a concave surface for placement against the lower limb (1386, Fig 13), and a foot strap (1350, Fig 13) which is attached to the padded member and configured, in use, to abut the lower surface of the foot (1356, Fig 13).
