These instructins are specifically fr patients that are te-tuch weight bearing (TTWB). It is very imprtant that yu adhere t yur weight-bearing instructins in rder t avid disrupting the healing prcess. The therapist will instruct yu n the apprpriate set-up and fitting f yur crutches. Te Tuch Weight Bearing (TTWB): Yur tes may rest n the grund while sitting r standing, but yu may nt place any weight thrugh this leg at any time. Set Up and Fitting: Standing straight with yur arm at yur side, the crutch handle shuld align with the inside f yur wrist. The height f the crutch shuld be adjusted s that there are 1-2 inches f space between the tp f the crutch and yur armpit. This is rughly the width f tw fingers.
2 General Instructins and Tips: Use yur crutches nly as instructed. Place nly the amunt f weight thrugh yur surgical/injured leg as specified by the physician. Use yur crutches fr all walking and standing activities until yur physician instructs yu therwise. Yur weight shuld be placed thrugh yur hands by pushing dwn thrugh the crutch handles. Never lean n yur crutches. Resting yur armpits n the crutches may cause nerve damage! Always use bth crutches. Using nly ne crutch may cause back prblems. Place weight evenly n bth crutches.
