Crutch Walking
What types of disability require canes or crutches?

Does anyone know of specific disabilities that require the use of crutches and / or canes. I can only think of that injury. foot and knee, but no real disadvantages. Thanks

I have rheumatoid arthritis and osteoporosis and the need for crutches the balance on my elbow because I have a weakness in the legs and lose balance easily. My husband also uses crutches because he has ankylosing Spondilitas elbow is a form of arthritis affecting spine and neck and causes deformities. You can not lift his head and needed crutches for balance as well. It also has osteoporosis. We walked Use the two sticks in the house. I have a friend who has to use elbow crutches because he was born with cerebral palsy and without his crutches, it would be in a wheelchair permanently. There many conditions that make it necessary for someone with AIDS to help walk …. without them, would probably use a wheelchair. After being in a wheelchair for eight years before I'm doing everything possible to avoid having to return because I faced a lot of discrimination in these 8 years due to ignorance of people I was thinking that a valid disability in some way.
