Hi Pauline, I can't use crutches either, they are terrible on my wrists and hands. But, My 4 - wheeled walker is the answer. I can raise the handle grips up high enough, then lean my forearms on the hand grips, to take the weight off the knee, and away I go. Hope you get to walking without any thing soon, Loretxx
