These crutches are fantastic! I was recovering from a very badly broken ankle, so I needed to be non-weight bearing for a long time. But, I'd also managed to break a finger, so I couldn't put weight on the palm of my hand like you have to while using traditional crutches. These solved the problem by putting the weight on my forearms instead of my hands. As a plus, putting my weight on my forearms removed the pressure from my wrists and armpits as well. With traditional crutches, all of the weight is supposed to go on the palms of your hands. But then your wrists end up getting sore, which is why most people also put some weight on the pad in their armpit. However, putting weight into your armpits is not good for your shoulder, and I know a few people who've ended up with shoulder injuries from traditional crutches. With these Kmina crutches, because the weight of your body is supported by your entire forearm, they remove the irritation of pressure points that traditional crutches cause. Also, the bottom on these crutches had a pad that was bigger and softer rubber than traditional crutches. Since I have hardwood floors in my house, it made them more stable on the slippery wood. In fact, my broken finger was caused by slipping while using traditional crutches. I wish I'd bought these right away! The crutches were really easy to use, although I was a little confused at first. The video for the Kmina Pro crutches on YouTube was very helpful for figuring out how to use them. I also kept mixing up the left from the right, so I finally marked one with a little piece of tape to visually identify them easily. They're not cheap, but they're totally worth it if you have a long recovery period. And they're certainly cheaper than injuring your shoulder or breaking your finger as traditional crutches caused me to do! While I'm hoping I never need to use any crutches ever again, if I do I'll definitely only use these.

Für mich, die besten Gehhilfen bei Polyarthrose. Sie entlasten Schultern und Handgelenke, lassen gerades Laufen zu und man kann sich beim Stehen bequem draufstützen. Schmerzen in den Armgelenken, ausgelöst durch einfache Gehhilfen nehmen ab und verschwinden irgendwann. Habe andere Modelle dieser besonderen Art ausprobiert, auch die sau teuren amerikanischen Dinger ( Die waren sackschwer.). Diese hier sind leicht, durch die Federung und den breiten Fuß weich und geräuschlos benutzbar und geben Sicherheit beim laufen. Die Verstellbarkeit der Höhe ist ungeschickt geregelt, da man sich die Lochzahl nicht einprägen kann, weil sich die Löcher des unteren Rohrs innerhalb des oberen befinden. Auch sollte man hin und wieder die Imbusschrauben des Griffrohres oder der Auflage überprüfen und ggf. nachziehen. Dennoch: Die Vorteile überwiegen.

Kryckan är bra men jag får lite träningsvärk än så länge. Den är otymplig i vissa lägen.
