Hello. I read a lot about various cushions people use on their wheelchairs. Those seem to be discussions about seat cushions.
We have a different problem. It is the back cushion that is always uncomfortable for L. He seems slumped to one side, causing his shoulder to rub and now he is having a red mark (which we are keeping an eye on so it does not become a pressure sore).
He has tried several back cushions, and they are either too wide so don't give enough support or seem to 'suffocating him' (wings to sides, enveloping him). Any ideas? What is your back cushion like?
