Who Should Use This
This elbow crutch is best suited for patients with leg fractures, knee injuries, post-surgery patients who need to keep weight off one leg, and long-term mobility-impaired individuals who need a comfortable alternative to underarm crutches.
How to Set the Right Height
- Stand straight in your normal shoes with your arms hanging relaxed.
- Adjust the lower tube until the hand grip is level with the crease of your wrist. When you hold the grip, your elbow should be slightly bent.
- Adjust the cuff so it sits on the forearm about two fingers below the elbow, without touching the elbow joint.
- Make sure both spring buttons have clicked fully into their holes before you put weight on the crutch.
One Crutch or Two?
This crutch is sold as a single piece. If you may put some weight on the injured leg, one crutch is usually held in the hand opposite the injured leg and moved forward together with that leg. If the doctor has said no weight at all on the leg, you need two crutches; order two pieces, or see our underarm walking crutches.
Expert Notes
On stairs remember one rule: going up, the good leg goes first; coming down, the crutch and the injured leg go first. Check the rubber tip every few weeks. When the pattern underneath is worn smooth it slips on wet tiles, and in a Bangladeshi bathroom that is where most crutch falls happen. Ask your doctor or physiotherapist how much weight you may put on the leg before you start walking.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is the price for one elbow crutch or a pair? The price is for a single piece. Order two if you need a pair.
Q: Which hand should hold a single elbow crutch? Usually the hand opposite the injured leg, so the crutch and the injured leg move forward together.
Q: Can the same crutch be used on the left or right side? Yes. The forearm cuff rotates, so one crutch works for either hand.
Q: Elbow crutch or underarm crutch, which is better? Elbow crutches put no pressure on the armpit and suit longer use. Underarm crutches feel more stable at first and are common for a short period after surgery.
