Exercise. Exercise creates strength and body awareness.

Support your feet.

If you have poor balance or feel unsteady on your feet, a walker may give you more support.

Which type of cane or walker is best for you depends on several things, including your strength, fitness level, and balance.

It is best not to choose the specific type of device yourself.

The SSA will consider both the type of assistive device that you use and the reason you need it in evaluating your claim for disability benefits.

Often the SSA will see disability applicants who are using assistive devices (especially canes and walkers) they bought at a pharmacy or borrowed from a friend of family member.
