Description
Underarm Crutches are designed to provide support and stability for individuals with injuries or mobility limitations. These crutches help to transfer weight from the legs to the upper body, allowing for easier movement and reduced strain on lower extremities. They are adjustable in height to ensure a proper fit for various users, promoting comfort and safety. The padded underarm supports and hand grips provide added comfort during use. Ideal for short-term or long-term use, underarm crutches are a reliable aid for those recovering from injuries or requiring additional support for mobility.
