Walking Aids Buyer's Guide: How To Choose The Right Walking Aid?

The following are the most common types of walkers:
Walker
A walker is ideal for those who have difficulty carrying their weight while walking. This help can improve posture and stability and reduce pain. Plus, there are many customizable options for both indoor and outdoor use. Most walkers are strong, lightweight and height adjustable. They also have swivel wheels on the bottom for quick turns in tight spaces. Knee walkers are suitable for people with knee injuries. A walker can elevate the injured leg, reducing the chance of the patient putting too much weight on the injured foot.

Roller
A rollator is similar to a rollator, but has a built-in seat, handlebars, and 3 to 4 wheels. Some of them come with baskets where you can keep essentials like water. Rollers are ideal for those who have limited strength and have difficulty lifting a regular walker.

Crutch
Crutches are handy whether your mobility is permanently or temporarily limited. For example, if one of your legs is injured but you have enough upper body strength to support your weight, crutches allow you to move quickly. Anyone with a broken or sprained ankle, as well as a broken leg, can use crutches to move around and take weight off the injured leg.
