Cane-less?
I have been trying to walk as much as possible without my cane and forcing myself to not rely on it so much. I have noticed that it is getting increasingly harder to NOT use it though. I feel great when I don’t use it. Its like not having to rely on artificial means to get around but not sure how much damage I am doing. I have realized that I am causing my body to work harder than it would and end up just hurting more later on. I also try to use the stairs instead of the elevator whenever possible. Should I just swallow my pride keep pushing my body and hope the pain goes away or do I just say screw it, take a hit and use it and get over my issues about using it?
