These damn crutches…
Posted by dippedinstyx on April 24, 2009
I am not a patient person…and my stubbed (injured side) toe is throbbing post bonking on the cold hard linoleum floor! Dang it..i was being a brave soul and just finished cooking myself dinner..( i know the doctor would highly disapprove). Now I wait and wonder if i did any more damage further along..tick tick tick. My first thought after i performed this manuever was a PT who gave me the advice that, ’slow is safe, safe is fast’, while lumbering on crutches. Damn crutches, please I implore no one else try the single crutch spin and turn to reach the crutch propped against the wall..danger danger danger…I’ll digress more tomorrow..goodnight.

I strongly recommend you look into a knee walker. It really saved me, plus I had an added benefit of being able to chase the dogs around the house!

Or you can use the poor man’s version of the knee walker: an office chair!
