Has Anyone Used Euro Or Any Forearm Crutches? I Need Crutches For A While, My Hands Hurt On Crutches,are Forearm Ones Any Less Painful?
I am having joint fusion surgery and will be on crutches for a while, the standard ones are so hard on my hands, fingers and wrists, with RA, are the euro/forearm style worth buying? I have a knee scooter, but it can't always be used. Thanks for your input.
Hi @A myRAteam Member ! Interesting that you are having joint fusion surgery. I am having that on my left hind foot and have to be off that foot for 3 months. I was excited because I just bought a knee walker .. reading your comment .. wondering if that will work for me? Cannot use a walker because it would kill my hands and arms. When is your surgery? I will be praying for you!!
Thank you Iowamom for the great advise
