Abstract
An unique orthopaedic crutch designed to fit the anatomy of the user and thereby avoid causing harm to the user. The crutch handle is inclined at the average angle of the human wrist to forearm of 14 degrees to the horizontal plus or minus a few degrees. This is unlike all crutches identified to date which generally require the patient's anatomy to fit to the crutches' design, exemplified by handle angles of zero degrees, or 90 degrees to the vertical. The upper part of the crutch is offset from the lower part by the angled handle takes into account all the major anatomical requirements of the human arm by fitting the natural carrying angle of the human arm in respect of the shoulder elbow wrist and hand. The device has an upper arm-support ring, a comfort-designed anatomically accommodating handle, and a shock-absorber in the lower part. The crutch is adjustable with particular ease and speed using an engraved red line for lining up the adjustment mechanisms
