   Someone mentioned that his new crutches were causing pain in his armpits. I told him that most of his weight should be on his hands, lest he cause permanent nerve damage in his armpits.
   
   About an hour later, as the pain left, he thanked me.

     How I knew:
     
     #sonOne spent over two years on crutches after a bicycle crash in high school. #sonTwo followed suit about a decade later, but his foot healed faster, so he was done in under a year.

     When they give people these things, don’t they show them how to use them anymore?

     @geniusmusing Another reason to dislike insurance companies. It's only a few minutes, since they have to adjust the crutches to the patient's body anyway, and it saves the patient some pain and possible long-term medical costs.
