Corysan Adjustable Aluminium Crutch Blue 1U
Directions
Instructions for Use: 1. Consult with a healthcare professional (doctor or physical therapist) to determine the correct crutch height and usage instructions specific to your needs. 2. Place the crutch tips firmly on the ground, slightly wider than shoulder-width apart. 3. Position the crutch underarms approximately 1-2 inches below your armpits. Do not rest your weight directly on your armpits to avoid nerve damage. 4. Lean forward slightly and step forward with your injured leg, placing your weight on the crutches. 5. Bring your uninjured leg forward, placing it slightly ahead of the injured leg. 6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 to walk. 7. When standing still, distribute your weight evenly between both crutches. Recommended Frequency: Use the crutch as directed by your healthcare professional. This will depend on your individual needs and recovery progress. The crutch should be used for support and mobility assistance as needed. Additional Tips: 1. Wear comfortable, supportive shoes with non-slip soles. 2. Ensure the crutch tips are in good condition and replace them if worn or damaged. 3. Be mindful of your surroundings and avoid uneven surfaces or obstacles. 4. Use handrails for added stability when navigating stairs. 5. Regularly check the tightness of the crutch's adjustment mechanisms and tighten them as needed. 6. If you experience any pain or discomfort, discontinue use and consult your healthcare professional.
