How do you even walk with a cane one never used one before
@evie
As in a cane for actual support or just as an aesthetic thing?
@Jo for like, actual support
My ankle is all hecked up and it hurts a lot to walk
@evie
Basically just put it out in front of you just a bit, and lean against it when you have to step on the bad limb?
Unfortunately I've only used mine when I've had severe backache, so that might not be the case at all.
@evie there's a couple 5 minute intro YouTube videos that might help. IIRC, if you hold it with your right hand, you move it forward when you step with your left to add stability and take weight if necessary. And adjust height for terrwin
@evie (House does it all wrong)
@evie previous experience with single shoulder-crutch suggests mirroring it with your weaker leg, stronger leg can go on its own. canes aren't crutches tho, so this mightn't really be applicable.
<3 walk safe, mayb consider picking up an ankle brace too?
Kati grabbed me a cheap collapsing, folding cane and now I feel like I'm in Bloodbourne
