Underarm Crutches
A pair of height-adjustable underarm crutches with padded underarm rests and hand grips. Crutches offload a substantial amount of weight from an injured leg by transferring it through the arms and shoulders, which makes them suitable where a leg cannot bear full weight — but demands more upper-body strength and coordination than a frame or cane.
Features
- Height-adjustable shaft
- Adjustable hand grip position
- Padded underarm rests
- Rubber ferrules
- Supplied as a pair
