Do I need crutches if my acute ankle injury hurts too much to walk?
Nickstar2192
If it is too painful to walk on an injured foot or ankle, crutches or some kind of cane should be used. While pain is a normal part of the healing process, it can also be an indicator that a follow up trip to the doctor is needed.
