In this Video, APRC Physiotherapy Department at Horizon Hospital will explain the correct use of folding Walker for advanced Knee Arthritis or Knee Pain, Advanced Hip Arthritis or Hip Pain, and patients suffering from Generalised weakness. Walker which is known as a walking frame and ZIMMER Walker is a very important walking aid. If we use a walker correctly, we can shift almost 30% of our body weight on Walker while walking. It provides good stability to old age patients during the walk. If we use the wrong technique, the chances of falling increase. That's why, Dr. Irfan Ahmed, one of the most experienced Orthopaedic Physiotherapists is sharing correct and wrong techniques of using a walker. In this video, you will be able to learn how to adjust the height of the walker by elbow bent and wrist level methods. He will also explain that you should walk in the center of the walker while you are using a walker. In the end, you will also learn how to sit and stand with a walker on a chair. This is video #1 of the walking aid series.
APRC believes safe mobility is the best way to avoid injuries. Stay safe, Stay Home.
