Should i feel bad for using a wheelchair just for a broken ankle?

I had surgery and whatnot, and I live in alaska, so crutches and ice kinda dont mix. I just feel really self concious because of using a wheelchair, its the same feeling if you accidentaly park in handicapp.

Answer #1

what? feel bad for who? you gotta do what you gotta do &crutches can hurt your armpits. plus, you’re crippled for now, take advantage of it while it lasts lol, but no, you shouldn’t feel bad at all…

Answer #2

If you need it then theres no reason for feel bad, crutches arent for everyone and especially with ice not always practical.

Answer #3

No. You shouldn’t feel bad. I can’t change the way you feel, but if you use crutches on ice, you’re gonna end up with another broken ankle. Then you would absolutely NEED a wheelchair. Since you’re actually thinking about what might happen with crutches and ice, then a wheelchair is perfectly fine. I hope your ankle feels better soon :)

Answer #4

Don’t feel bad really. When I broke my knee, I had a full leg cast and I was forced to use crutches. You have no idea how many times I fell due to the ice and the wetness from people walking into the school from outside. It did not make things any better for me. So by all means, use the wheelchair, don’t feel guilty for it.

Answer #5

no! youre not just using it for fun! don’t feel bad at all! hope your ankle heals quickly!

Answer #6

Your armpits will thank you.

Answer #7

Don’t feel bad, at least you’re using it for your ankle. If you were walking or using crutches you could end up in a more worse condition, so the wheelchair is a lot safer.

Answer #8

hmph, i think it is better you stay in wheelchair

Answer #9

Tak advanage of this, park in the hannicaped parking lolz jk but if you need it and crutches hurt you or you don’t want them then a wheelchair is the way to go =) I love watching my friends play basketball, even though they are in wheelchairs.
