cushion or pillow??? Explanation: In Danish a 'pølle' is a cylindrical cushion. (Vinterberg & Bodelsen) Could this be something like that? I have also seen what the patient called a 'pølle' with a smaller diameter in the middle, in that case to keep the head in position, but it could be used to stabilise a limb too. |
