There are so many varieties of crutches to choose from today. There are wooden crutches and forearm crutches. All are sturdy and solid and built with safety foremost in mind. Post operative patients quickly realize the durability and necessity of using crutches to help them get around and begin building up their muscles.
Some people require the use of only one of their crutches (which makes it more like a cane) while most people need to use both of their crutches to get around after breaking a leg. One important consideration when choosing crutches is the comfort of the underarm cushion. The crutches must be sized for your individual height and should be comfortable to use.
