Help me out!
I just want to ask which of these canes/support would be better for me?
For context, I have an orthopedic condition and some mobility issues. I mainly struggle with balance and I tend to walk slowly. The way I walk is somewhat noticeable, though not severely.
This is actually my first time using a cane since becoming disabled because I usually have someone with me whenever I walk. However, this time, I’ll be attending the event alone. I’m also not used to using canes or any kind of mobility support yet, which is why I’m feeling a bit anxious about it.
The reason I’m asking is because I need to attend an important event that will be held in a large, open, and crowded space. Normally, I can walk without a cane as long as the surface is flat and smooth, especially in smaller or enclosed places. However, since this event involves a lot of walking and crowds, I’m considering using a cane for additional support and stability.
For those who use canes, which type would you recommend for my situation? I’d also appreciate hearing about your experiences with them, especially in crowded places or during long events.
Sorry if I’m overthinking this a bit I just want to make the best decision and avoid any difficulties during the event.
