Knee Replacements vs Foot Surgery

By | June 29, 2013

kneescooterMother in law came to stay for  a week or two after a knee replacement. She recovered well, and didn’t need any kind of knee scooters at RentaKneeWalker.com fortunately.

I wouldn’t have thought the surgeon would be pleased to see her using one of these. Knee surgery after all was so that she COULD use her knee again, not to have the muscles grow stiff from this.

In fact, I’m a bit puzzled who’d buy a knee scooter for knee surgery. But one review on Amazon wrote about using one for foot/ankle surgery that he’d had.

The drive steerable knee walker is a complete lifesaver. I had foot surgery and ordered one to avoid having to live on crutches for weeks on end. It would have been nice had it come with a few instructions but I eventually did figure it out. The steering and brakes make it so versatile. The fact that you can thumb lock the breaks and use the device in place and then release it to move is just plain awesome. I’m 5’1 and a little on the short side for the lowest setting but really have nothing but great things to say about it. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who has suffered a foot injury or who is going to have surgery.
