Just got injured at work, tearing 3 foot ligaments and might need surgery. I’m so overwhelmed and when they gave me under arm crutches I couldn’t but help think the grass was greener on the other side with the forearm crutches.. thank you for the video it assured me that my underarm crutches are just as good as the other crutches.

Thank you so much! I've often wondered about the differences in crutches. I'm about to start using crutches for an extended period after a knee surgery and this was great information! Underarm crutches have always caused me pain at the inside of my upper arm so I wanted to see if there was a benefit or drawback to using the axillary crutches. Again, thank you for taking the time to make this professional and informative video.

@vernondavis6095, this is a bit of a decision if you haven’t tried the forearm crutches before. If you are going to be using crutches longer term they certainly may be worth a try. We would suggest checking to see if there is a medical equipment lending program near you to see if they might have some that you could try out. Another option would be is to see if your state Assistive Technology Program has some they you could use for a trial. Here is where you can search for your state AT program. at3center.net/state-at-programs/ Hope this is helpful. Take care! ✌🏻❤️😊 AECorner

I walk with two canes most of the time, however, I do have a rollator that I take with me when I go somewhere that will have a lot of walking so I can sit as needed. My husband doesn't like to wrestle it into the car, so most of the time I use the canes as they are easier to get in and out of the car. My canes are wearing out and I've been considering purchasing the arm crutches. What are the advantages/disadvantages of using arm crutches over canes?
@AECorner

Dolores J Rush, thank you for your comment. The rollator will provide the most stability. Crutches, whether axillary (underarm) or forearm will provide more support and stability over canes. Either type of crutch will certainly take some practice. We would recommend being evaluated by a local physical therapist for assessment of what might work best/be safest for you, as well as what type of walking pattern would be best for you with crutches. Stay safe! ✌🏻❤️AECorner

@@AECorner I broke a foot when in high school, so have had about 6 weeks of practice walking with the axillary crutches. smile! My hands and underarms got very sore and mom wrapped washcloths around the handles with duct tape. Would my hands get sore like that with the forearm crutches too? The foam cushion handles on my canes have split, so I wrapped them with tennis racket wraps over the remaining cushions, because I couldn't find replacement cushions. I really like the feel of the racket wraps - nice and soft on my hands.

The forearm crutches can cause hand soreness as well depending on the style. If you are considering crutches for long term use you may want to look at an adjustable forearm crutch that distributes the weight from your hand through your forearm. (Check out SmartCrutch Product Review here: kzitem.info/news/bejne/uZCLsoyVf6V0mqQ ) The Smart crutches are certainly more pricey, but may be worth the improved comfort. These do take some practice. Again, I would consult with your PT on your needs and options. Keep us posted, we love to hear how people are doing. Take care. ✌🏻❤️AECorner

Hi! I'm back! I've got a question for you about devices I can use for taking videos. Obviously, you use cameras to film your videos and I've decided to get out into the field to take shorts videos of fountains. I've made 4 videos so far and have them in a playlist on my channel. It's been a learning curve for sure as I'm still using forearm crutches. I've already discovered that it is really tough to walk with crutches and hold a smartphone on a gorilla pod. I also tried a neck stand, but it bounces too much when I walk. I just spent an hour looking on Amazon and eBay for something I could carry in my backpack (purse) and pull out on the spot to get a photograph or a video that is hands-free. My smart phone doesn't have a stabilizer in it, so I have to stand still to get a photograph or video, but would like to be able to move around to circle around the fountains and get different angles. I also thought about adding a belt or large dog collar to my backpack straps to hold the neck holder in place to keep it from bouncing around when I walk. And I noticed that it's really hard to see the cell phone screen in the sunshine. My husband wondered if I should wear a bandana over my head to see the cell phone screen like the old fashioned photographers had, however I don't want to stumble over something and fall. Any creative thoughts to help me with small assistive videography devices will be much appreciated. Thank you.

@@DoloresJRush what about a monopod? It’s like a tripod but with one leg. It reminds me of a walking stick that can hold a camera. Could you use it in place of a crutch when you get to the shot set up? We’ll have to keep thinking about something to use to attach it to your body. I know professional videographers have gear that straps to their torso but it look really cumbersome
