Ergobaum Ergonomic Forearm Crutches- Adult- Black

Adult Ergobaum Ergonomic Forearm Crutches were designed in 2007 by an Orthopedic Surgeon. He designed them to address patient concerns about secondary injuries they often suffered during rehabilitation from an accident, sports injury or surgery. There were many complaints of extra pain caused by common, traditional, underarm-style crutch support devices. The designer, Dr. Birnbaum, brought all his thirty-year patient experience and orthopedic knowledge to bear in inventing a revolutionary line of mobility support devices. His design was like the black crutches to improve the quality of life for his patients as well as all mobility-impaired individuals. This piece of durable medical equipment is ergonomically designed with maximum shock absorption that will provide comfortable, pain-free mobility support when consumers need it the most. They are CE, USA Medicare and Medicaid approved so they can be used by many different patients.

Unlike ordinary crutches, which can be a real pain-in-the-armpit, the Ergobaum crutches are lightweight and comfortable to effectively reduce the typical negative side effects from using old-style underarm crutches. Many of these issues can show up in the form of back, shoulder and arm pain, underarm discomfort, carpal tunnel syndrome and tendon subluxation just to name a few. Spring-loaded shock absorbers have been built into the legs to reduce impact with the ground, which will eliminate the typical pain associated with walking on crutches. It's always advisable when choosing a mobility or support device to discuss all options with a healthcare professional. This ensures that patients will get the option that will best fit their needs. The best product for users will always be dependent in part on the design of the device. Other factors include their particular injury or disability and their body's overall physical strength and condition. Many long-term crutch users with sufficient upper body strength and active individuals recuperating from a sports injury prefer forearm crutches like these black crutches over underarm expedients. For those who opt to use a forearm support, this handy and convenient item has become a well-loved favorite because of its high-tech and state-of-the-art patient-centric design. The adult-sized crutches can be adjusted to fit people from 5' to 6'6" tall, weighing up to 360 lbs. That means these will work for a wide range of users. These Ergobaum ergonomic forearm supports feature an adjustable, non-slip, cushioned hand grip to prevent slipping. The built-in retractable knee platform allows users to comfortably rest their knee on it while standing when a break is needed. This is especially useful for lower leg traumas like ankle or foot injuries. Patients will appreciate the spring-loaded, shock-absorbing leg design with every comfortable step you take as you walk from place to place. Walking while injured is always challenging and requires a person to make every effort to be careful not to fall and injure themselves further. This will allow users to appreciate the built-in safety features of the item that includes the LED light for increased night vision. Other features are a horn, reflectors and stable, slip-resistant Ergo Cap crutch tips to prevent falls and accidents.
