Striding. I always wondered if I was using my cane properly. Thank you for the video.
I love your videos. I recently had knee replacement surgery and honestly, I found ur advices very helpful and I do ur exercises everyday. God bless you 🙏
Thanks 🙏 for sharing this episode walking with Cane👍👏
My partner and I were at a hospital recently having a coffee in the coffee shop before our appt. A lady walked in with a cane that was totally not fitted correctly. She looked so awkward. I’d like to think anyone needing a cane and prescribed one by a medical person would be fitted correctly.

Thanks for showing us the proper height. Mine was too high! QUESTION - Is a cane helpful for back injuries or only leg injuries? I have vertebral fractures and wonder if a cane is actually good to use.
Very useful, I’ll try to adjust my cane. Thanks for sharing. ❤️
Thank you. For all your help striding

Thankyou Nathan!
Thank you for your clear explanation and demo

Thank you for sharing ♥️
5!! Two big reasons. She’s using it correctly, putting her weight into it, and it’s correctly in sync with the weak side. But the biggest clue is it fits her. Canes have to be the proper height.
Thank you so much 🙏🏼

Thank you. Learned something from your video.
I’m still using walker or quad cane when walking. It’s been almost 2years post stroke. Praying & hoping to walk again without any assistive device. 😔
Striding: I was using my cane improperly until I saw the video. Thanks.
You are welcome. 🙏🏼
@SKILLS AND WELLNESS You've got the same link for both canes. I'm interested in the quad.

Hi, 1st time viewing video. Striding. Just realized I had my Hurray Cane too talk, went down 2 slots & fills better walking. Was getting slight elbow stiffness, should end now using cane properly.
Nice bah gamit kaayo nko ang cane🙏😇

I have t-rex arms. I also have cervical and lumbar spine issues. I absolutely do not want to lean forward or bend. I also have drop foot on left side. I don’t use my cane properly, per most videos as far as not having it straight down on my right side. My legs are very weak. Walking is very difficult for me, but if I go to a chair, I think I will never get out of it. It’s a major struggle, but at least I can still move around. I don’t expect to get much better, but I hope to get some physical therapy to increase my strength at some point. I’m 67, I’ll never be a kid again. And the spine issues are a combination of congenital and injuries. 🤷♀️
Same to you, unable to walk by my own . I used rolator all the time even inside the house. I have 2 surgeries and a cervical. My first surgery was fine 9 years no cane and rolator. My balance was fine, still have pain in my lower back I can tolerated it. Now came back, 2nd surgery was bad, unable to hold my balance and walking,. anymore. It’s severe. I’m thinking for another surgery with a different neorosurgeon. Try to use cane if I could handle it. Take care.
I use two canes.
Hang in there and don’t give up!!! I have a really bad right knee and my left leg isn’t much better, so I really maybe need two canes… But I don’t see how that would work out for me!! I live in a small house/apartment and I have a walker, but there’s not room enough to use the walker in here… I have to look at his video again and check my height on my cane… I need a cane with the four prongs at the bottom, I think!! Would be so much more stable!! I am absolutely wobbling all over the place, though I haven’t fallen in a very long time, because I’m hyper vigilant, and I say prayers, plus I have a Lifeline That I wear around my neck, so if I fall, Emergency crew will come and help me… So appreciate this fellow/Brother doing this video!! I will say prayers for you also!! Have you found Jesus Christ and the gospel?! He is coming soon!! Love, Sister Gay Michaelis (and brother Michaelis in the spirit world recently) and family…(our daughter-in-law just passed away on Easter Sunday with stage four melanoma at the age of 41!! Our son and all of us really miss her, besides, my husband/grandpa!)…❤🤗🌎🙏👍😊😇🤟🥰🌼✨🏡
Striding thanks
Thank you so very much!!! Well, both my legs are bad!! So I’m kind of confused about this video… I’m going to have to rewatch this several times, and figure this out… Yes, I don’t have the four prongs on the bottom like that one cane… I think that’s the kind of cane. I should get perhaps!! I live in a small apartment/house, and don’t have the room to use a walker… But I am very shaky on the cane… I say lots of prayers and am constantly watching, etc., so I don’t fall!! Plus I have a Lifeline around my neck, so if I do fall, it will contact emergency medical services… But I have not had a fall in a very long time!! Thank you again for this good video… Have you found the gospel of Jesus Christ yet?! He is coming again!!!! ❤🤗😇🙏👍🥰🌎😊

Doctor, thanks for your videos. They really help me in my post stroke. But my issue is that, my ankle try twisting when I begin to walk, .asking my feet not flat on the ground and unstable. Kindly recommend some of your exercises to assist me. Thank you

Much grateful
SALAMUCH ..KEEP GOING❤❤❤

I’ve walked with a cane as you describe for many years. I have a bad left knee. Now, however, I’ve just had right shoulder surgery. I can’t find a comfortable or helpful way to walk with my cane in my left hand to help my left knee while my right shoulder heals. What do you recommend? Thanks!
I think I need two canes. Thanks for the vid. Striding
Maybe I need two canes!? It just seems too difficult with two different canes, but I have two bad legs, and a very bad lower back!! Any suggestions? Thank you.
My issue is disequilibrium. I have a tendency to drift to the left. Is that the side I should hold the cane on to push me back to centre?
Striding. Tkz
Striding 👍👍
What if you have had knee replacements on both knees?

I’m using a cane too. I’m confused of what you’re saying! I have a pain in my left knee, so I used my cane where the pain is or else I’m going to fall down. 😟😟😟

I use a cane on the side that is healing. Maybe it is an age thing. Using a cane "approptiately" makes me more unbalanced and stepping funny. I am 69
