Unlike normal underarm crutches these crutches do not put constant pressure on the underarm which can cause severe nerve damage and result in a serious medical condition. Fore-arm crutches are more appropriate for people with long-term needs, the crutch features a lightweight carbon fiber shaft and flexible cuff that surrounds the forearm just below the elbow, helping to reduce arm strain. The price listed above is for one carbon fiber crutch.
