I had surgery to my left knee 3 days before filming this video, which I made “on location” while recuperating with my uncle and aunt in Norfolk.
In this video I explain:
the importance of closed shoes
how to make sure your crutches fit
step-to and step-through gait patterns
how to get up and down stairs on crutches
how to sit in a chair and stand up while using crutches
The crutches in this video are Flexyfoot crutches, which I bought from Granny Gets A Grip. They’re spring loaded, which means they take some of the jarring off my arms when I’m walking. I’m also wearing weight lifting gloves with chamois palms, because after a couple of days on crutches, my hands were starting to feel chafed.
This video accompanies my blog series on my femoral chondral defect, so if you’d like to know more, please go to https://nellmead.com/blog
