If you find yourself about to have surgery and in need of an extra pair of legs, there are many options worth investigating when it comes to buying crutches. There are also plenty of pitfalls to avoid in your quest of finding the perfect crutch which will fit in seamlessly into your lifestyle. In the past, a crutch could be awkward and painful, but that doesn't need to be the case anymore.

There are common mistakes people make when buying crutches. Aspects to consider when buying a crutch or walking aids is to find one that is proportionate to your height, or one that can be adjusted to your height. If not adjusted correctly, the crutch can cause pain or discomfort in the underarm, writs or hand. The incorrect use of such aids could even leave you with numbness in your hands. When in public places try and avoid stairs as much as possible as it can be very dangerous. Rather look for alternatives such as elevators, or use the hand railings. Their sole purpose is to support you on your feet with the least amount of disturbance to your life.

You should avoid trying to carry things in your hand while using a crutch as it will inevitably end up on the floor. Try and make your environment as crutch friendly as possible by ensuring obstructing objects are removed and you have enough space to move around freely.

Each range comes in a selection of colours and sports improvements such as fully adjustable custom settings and varied foot options for multiple surfaces and varied environments.

To assemble and fit iWALKFree: trim the beam to equal the inseam measurement

1. with the user seated with leg bent at a 90-degree angle, measure the distance from the back of knee to the ground of the unaffected limb. This determines the height for the top of the tray

2. to attach the tray, unlock the front cam clip; disengage locking pin; slide tray onto the beam; lock pins; lock cam clip at the front of the tray

3. to attach the straps*, unlock cam clip of lower strap; slide onto beam just above knee; lock cam clip; repeat with upper strap; slide onto beam just below groin; lock cam clip

4. install beam cap *all straps can be flipped for right or left-handed use To Check for Proper Fit: When walking with iWALKFree, you should be able to swing your leg freely front to back without catching it on the ground. If you can't move it freely, then iWALKFree is too long, and needs to be readjusted
