Had walking boot for a week now been told to use crutches by doctor I seem to be putting all my weight into my hands on the crutches any advice how I can put it into the boot instead of my hand. I have the boot for 2 more weeks until I go back.

I feel like I'm so uneven aswelll so have ordered a pair of trainers to try and even out a bit

I really want to get out of this boot but obviously can't until the doctor says it's ok. But I feel it would be much better without the boot as I'm so unsteady

      Thank you. I can deal with the handles I'm going to put something else on them. It's the in even ness I can't. Surely it has to b easier being the same level I will keep at it but I'll b glad to get rid of it n b even again. I can't really get out of the house unless I'm taken as the uneven ness is too much how did u manage outside on your own
