Tuesday, I had an appointment with my therapist. She has just relocated her office. Now it's right around the corner from my house. My husband was stuck in traffic, so I decided to walk. I often get spacticity and numbness when I walk a long distance. However, it was such a pretty day, I decided to try it. About halfway to her office, I fell...hard. I have some pretty bad road rash and a serious sprain in my right foot. Now I'm on crutches and then, the dreaded boot. Walking with crutches is not going well. I am having a hard time balancing myself. Also, I think my lack of balance contributed to my fall.
Does anyone have some words of wisdom for improving balance with crutches? Have you had a bad fall like this happen to you? Misery does love company, lol.
