An elbow brace worn by a patient to recuperate an injury to the ulnar nerve or “funny bone.” The elbow brace includes two arched cuffs facing the same direction, and two struts interconnecting the cuffs. Each strut is formed from a wire of spring steel. A pair of oppositely-wound coiled springs are formed at about the middle of each strut. When worn, the patient's elbow is situated between the spring coils with the struts extending parallel to the arm, and one cuff resting against the mid upper arm and one cuff resting against the mid forearm. Two straps extend from respective coils of one strut to respective coils on the second strut. One strap fits underneath the forearm and the other strap fits underneath the upper arm. Each wire strut may be coated or covered by a tubular sheath or sleeve made of a soft polymer material.
