Day 43 - My Back Hurts

Yesterday, I was in cane heaven. Today, I'm not too sure. Yes I get around a lot easier and quicker. And it was less of a hassle to carry, but after I full days use I got a pain in my lower back. With a walker I would distribute my weight between my two arms, so it was a balance load. With a cane, I am putting all my weight on my left arm which causes my back to be out of balance. I think also it is because I am not putting enough weight on my injured leg when I walk. Hopefully, when I see the doctor on Monday he will give me the ok to put more weight on my leg and less on my cane. Depending on how my back feels tomorrow, I may go back to using my walker.
