<p>A leg support (110) adapted to be secured to a leg includes an elongate strut (1 12) having first and second segments (126, 128), and a flexible middle segment (124) located therebetween. The strut (112) is arranged for securing to a posterior side of a leg generally along a medial-lateral plane. A resilient device (1 16) is removably secured to a first surface of the strut (112), and extends across the middle strut segment (124). The middle strut segment (124) and the resilient device (116) are arranged to correspond to a knee of a leg and bend therewith such that the resilient device (116) urges the strut (112) into a generally upright configuration.</p>
