Walking Stick With Cane Tips Elder Forearm Crutches

First, grasp comfort

The surface of the handle should have anti-skid design to prevent it from slipping easily from the hand when subjected to external force. The size of the handle should be such that the thumb and forefinger can overlap to form a closed ring when holding.

Second, anti-skid at the bottom

The bottom end shall be equipped with a foot pad made of rubber sleeve or other anti-skid materials, which is moderately soft and hard. Generally, the rubber head with moderate hardness is more anti-skid than the hard plastic head. There should be deep grooves at the bottom to facilitate drainage and anti-slip on wet ground. Check whether it can effectively prevent slipping. Push it on the ground at an angle of 45 degrees to see whether it can prevent slipping. It is best to test the anti-skid effect on both dry and wet surfaces. Pay attention to cleaning and maintenance during use, regularly replace aging anti-slip head, and reduce the risk of slipping.

Third, the length should be appropriate

The crutches are too long to support, which will increase the bending of elbow joints, and the wrist and arm will become sour after long use. The crutches are too short, and the body should be tilted all the time when using them, which increases the burden on the waist muscles and makes it easy to get tired. Therefore, too long or too short crutches will bring a lot of inconvenience to daily use, affecting the function of crutches originally used to assist the elderly to walk. Only by using crutches with proper length can you feel relaxed, comfortable and safer when walking. The appropriate length should be: when the walking stick is "standing" with the person, the height of the handle should be the same as the naturally drooping wrist.

Fourth, the weight should be appropriate

The walking stick is made of wood, aluminum alloy, carbon fiber, etc. No matter which material, the weight should be moderate, generally 250-350g. It is too heavy to use, too light and has a floating feeling. Pay attention to the load-bearing performance of the crutches when selecting, especially the crutches with light weight, and pay more attention to the identification of the material of the crutches to avoid purchasing the crutches of weak and inferior quality by mistake.
