A walking aid is a device used to help people with mobility issues to walk. The most common walking aids are crutches, staffs, and canes. Crutches are two poles with handles that the user holds onto while walking. A STAFF is a long pole with a handle at one end that the user holds onto while walking. A CANE is a single pole with a handle at one end that the user holds onto while walking. All three of these devices provide support and stability for the user while walking.
