Izinduku nezinduku zokuhamba kuyizinto ezisizayo ezisetshenziswa kakhulu lapho izitho ezingezansi zingahambi kahle. Isibonelo, iziguli ezine-hip joint, i-knee arthritis noma isifo se-ankle, nabantu asebekhulile abangenakulimala kodwa abanemilenze nezinyawo ezingahambi kahle nazo ziyanconywa. Udondolo noma izinduku zingavimbela isitho esithintekile ekuthwaleni isisindo, zisize ukugcina ukulinganisela komzimba, futhi zenze ukuphila kwansuku zonke kuphephe. Kodwa kunezinyathelo eziningi zokuphepha zokukhetha nokusebenzisa izinti zokuhamba.
Lapho ukhetha i-crutch, naka ikhwalithi yayo, futhi kufanele izinzile. Iphedi yenjoloba yengxenye yokusekela ikhwapha kufanele ibe nokunwebeka, futhi isiphetho esingezansi sezinduku kufanele sibe nethiphu yenjoloba. Futhi uma uzizwa ubuthakathaka emzimbeni noma emilenzeni yakho, uhamba unganyakazi, ugoqekile futhi ubuhlungu emalungeni esitho sangaphansi, noma une-knee osteoarthritis, ungakhetha ukusebenzisa induku. Abantu abaningi asebekhulile abafuni ukusebenzisa induku ngenxa yokwesaba ukubonakala njengophawu lokuguga, kodwa ukusebenzisa induku kungakwenza ukhululeke, uphephe futhi uzimele.
Uma usebenzisa izinduku, lapho umi uqondile, umkhawulo ongaphezulu wezinduku kufanele ube yiminwe emi-2 ngaphansi kwekhwapha. I-armrest yezinduku kufanele ibe phezulu komugqa we-hip, noma lapho izandla zigoba lapho zimile, kanye nendawo yezihlakala. Uma ubambe i-armrest, indololwane igoba kancane. Ukuze uvimbele ukulimala kwemizwa nemithambo yegazi ngaphansi kwamakhwapha, lapho umile futhi uhamba, umzimba kufanele usekelwe ngezandla esikhundleni samakhwapha.
Uma uhamba, ncika phambili kancane bese uhambisa izinduku phambili cishe ngo-30 cm. Ekuqaleni, kubonakala sengathi iya phambili nomlenze olimele, kodwa empeleni ihambisa isisindo ezindukuni. Umzimba wahamba phambili phakathi kwezinduku, futhi ekugcineni wasekelwa phansi ngomlenze omuhle. Uma imilenze iqinile, qhubekela phambili ngezinduku ukuze ulungiselele isinyathelo esilandelayo. Lapho uhamba, bheka phambili, hhayi ngaphansi kwezinyawo zakho. Lapho uhlezi, fulathela esihlalweni esizinzile (okungcono sibe nezindawo zokubeka izingalo). Hambisa izinduku esandleni esisodwa, thinta isihlalo emuva ngesinye isandla, bese uhlala phansi kancane. Ngemva kokuhlala phansi, vula izinduku zibheke phansi futhi uzibeke endaweni efinyeleleka ngasohlangothini lwakho ukuze uvimbele izinduku ukuba zingasheleli.
Uma ufuna ukusukuma, hambisa umzimba wakho phambili kancane, beka izinduku zakho esandleni ohlangothini lomlenze wakho olimele, qinisa umzimba wakho, futhi usebenzise imilenze yakho ukuwusekela. Lapho ukhuphuka futhi wehla ezitebhisini, bamba izintambo ngesandla esisodwa nezinduku ngesinye. Uma ukhuphukela phezulu, umlenze omuhle ungaphambili, umlenze olimele ungemuva, futhi umlenze omuhle usetshenziselwa ukuthwala umlenze olimele. Uma ushona phansi, umlenze olimele ungaphambili futhi umlenze omuhle ungemuva. Gxuma ngemilenze emihle ngamunye ngamunye. Uma izitebhisi zingenawo ama-handrails, ungakwazi kuphela ukugxuma phezulu naphansi izingalo zakho uzungeze. Khumbula "imilenze emihle ikhuphuka kuqala, imilenze emibi yehla kuqala."
