Q: Is a knee scooter better than crutches?

For most people healing from a foot or ankle injury, yes. On crutches your body weight rests on your hands with every step, as the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons explains, which tires the arms quickly. A knee scooter lets you rest the injured leg on the knee pad and push with your strong leg, freeing your hands and shoulders. It does require good balance on your standing leg and is not for stairs.
