I have to use a cane?!
Question:
I have to use a cane?
im 18 and was injured playing basketball. i was using crutches and got off them about a month ago from a ankle injury. My ankle has been sore lately and i went and had it checked. my doc said i had tissue damage(probably my fault...sum times went to parties and places and just hobbled or used one crutch). He saaid i would have to use a cane for 3 months to give my tissue rest to heal. i got a black one and had to go to walmart afterwards. i walked back to the dvd's with the cane and overheard a group of teens making fun of my "old man' cane. what i wanna know is did any teen guys here ever use a cane or is there a more teenish cane i could get thanks...

Dude...Number one, don't trip about what they're saying. I just had an ankle injury 3 weeks ago or so, and I haven't been able to do much but hobble around and it's killing me.
I don't have to use a cane (yet), but I'm seriously thinking about using my crutches more now that I've heard your story.
But there are a lot of canes you can get that are pretty awesome. Just Google "Pimp Canes" and you'll be pretty much in style.
