Abstract:
1. The Crutch Cover is a square shaped, mitten-like (with no thumbs) cover made of thick, polyester batting covered by soft fleece fabric. The dimensions are approximately 10″ long, by 10″ wide by 2″ thick. 2. The Crutch Cover is designed for people who use crutches, typically after experiencing leg surgery or a broken leg bone. When a person uses crutches, the top part of the crutch can make the user's armpit, side arm and side ribcage sore and uncomfortable. This discomfort arises from the constant rubbing of the crutch top against the user's body. The Crutch Cover creates a soft cushion around the top 10″ of the crutch, thereby, protecting the person's armpit, side arm and ribcage side. 3. The Crutch Cover easily slides over the top portion of the crutch. It fits snugly in place. No pins, elastic, buttons, pull cords, elastic or flaps are needed to hold the Crutch Cover is place. The thick polyester batting is sewn in place. It is not removable, nor will it fall out of the Crutch Cover. The thickness of the batting is consistent throughout the entire cover.
