  • Patent number: 6994090
    Abstract: The invention is an underarm support for one or both arms having a pad which fits under the arm of the user, preferably in the arm pit, flexible and of sufficient diameter under compression at that area to open the arm outward for greater blood flow and to more correctly position the arm. In order to assist in lifting the arm at the armpit and to secure the pad in place, a strap fits over one or both shoulders and passes around the torso from the should strap above the underarm. In the preferred embodiment, the strap fits over the shoulder directly above the arm to be lifted. A second strap travels around the torso of the user in order to hold the pad in place. The pad is preferably flexible at least the same width as the underarm of the user.
