Why Choose Forearm Crutches Over Axillary (Underarm) Crutches? Better weight distribution: Load transfers through the forearm cuff and handgrip — not the armpit — eliminating the risk of axillary nerve damage from underarm crutches Greater maneuverability: Forearm crutches allow a more natural gait pattern and are easier to use on stairs, curbs, and uneven terrain Hands-free capability: The forearm cuff keeps the crutch attached when you release the grip, freeing your hands momentarily Preferred for long-term use: Recommended by physical therapists for patients who will use crutches for weeks, months, or permanently Lower profile: More discreet and easier to store than axillary crutches Walk Easy Forearm Crutch Models Adult Full Cuff Models Model 471 — Fixed 4" full cuff, standard adult sizing Model 480 — 4" full cuff, standard adult Model 490 — Adjustable 4" full cuff — height-adjustable for a precise fit Model 492 — Adjustable full cuff Model 479 — Folding full cuff — folds for easy transport and storage Model 495 — Anatomic grip, full cuff — ergonomic handgrip reduces wrist strain Adult Half Cuff Models Model 445 — Half cuff, standard adult Model 455 — Half cuff, standard adult Model 484 — Half cuff, standard adult Model 494 — Adjustable half cuff Model 496 — Anatomic grip, half cuff — ergonomic handgrip with half cuf
