Cane Lights
What are the disadvantages of heavy cane/walking stick?
A lot of articles mentioned hat we should choose for light cane/walking stick instead of the heavy one. What are the disadvantages of heavy cane/walking stick? Is it true that heavy cane/walking stick can increase the risk of falling or even the risk of wrist/shoulder injury?
Thanks ^^
I sell canes. I don't know what articles you read, but if a cane is properly fitted by a professional, it shouldn't be too heavy.
A heavy walking stick (not cane) could, I suppose, slip from its contact point with the ground if you're hiking.
I don't think that would happen with a good medical cane. As I said, it should be measured and fitted by someone who knows what they are doing. That person would not recommend some top heavy handle on the cane.
It is possible to get carpal tunnel problems in the wrist the cane is held in. I know because it happened to me.
I'll have to think a bit more about this and will add info if I get it.
