  2. The handgrips of the crutches should be even with the top of your hip line
  3. Your elbows should be slightly bent when you hold the handgrips
  4. To avoid damage to the nerves and blood vessels in your armpit, your weight should rest on your hands, not on the underarm supports

    3. Bring the body forward slowly between the crutches
    4. Finish the step normally with the good leg
    5. When the good leg is on the ground, move the crutches ahead in preparation for the next step
    6. Always look forward, not down at the feet
  • While Sitting:
    1. To sit, back up to a sturdy chair

    4. Slowly lower into the chair
    5. When seated, lean the crutches in a nearby spot

    8. Hold both crutches in hand on the injured side
    9. Push the body up and stand on the good leg

    2. When going up, lead with the good foot, keeping the injured foot raised behind
    3. When going down, hold the injured foot up in front, and hop down each step on your good foot
    4. Take it one step at a time
    5. User may need someone to help, at least at first
    6. If a stairway is without handrails, use the crutches under both arms and hop up or down each step on the good leg, using more strength
    7. If you feel unsteady, it may be easier to sit on each step and move up or down on your bottom
