Smart Crutches Were My Best Choice

I’m 22 years old (soon to be 23) and I’m already having movement problems stemming from the pain and stiffness of AS (along with fibromyalgia and fatigue problems).

I’ve used a cane for about 3 years, now, but I finally saved up enough money to buy a pair of Smart Crutches. I use mine in platform mode, still bearing most of my weight and in a ski pole motion as I walk.

Getting my mobility back

They are the best choice I have made regarding my mobility, it helps to keep my posture upright, walking and standing, moves walking strain to forearms (away from joints), and even helps me walk faster.

I’ve only had them for 3 days at this point but I’m already so happy at getting my mobility back.
