A medical aid that functions as (1) a standalone femur traction device for femur traction or (2) a trapezoidally-shaped cushioned leg support pillow. The medical aid can be placed on an ordinary bed and is constructed to provide traction without the use of weights or pulleys. The medical aid includes a base that supports a trapezoidally-shaped leg pillow or support and an adjustable U-shaped fulcrum coupled to the base. The U-shaped fulcrum supports thereon an elastic cord with an attached leg pin connector. Adjustment of the U-shaped fulcrum and/or the tension applied by the elastic cord varies the amount of traction. The trapezoidally-shaped cushioned leg support can be used with or without the base.
