使用拐杖（Cane）的核心原則是「健側持杖」，以模擬正常步態並減輕患肢負重。正確的使用方式是將拐杖握在健側手，當患肢向前跨步時，拐杖同時向前移動，形成一個穩定的三角形底座。若將拐杖持於患側，會導致身體重心偏移，增加跌倒風險。此外，拐杖與腳尖的距離應維持在約 15-20 公分（6-8 英吋）以確保最佳平衡。
The fundamental principle of cane use is to "hold the cane on the strong side" to mimic a normal gait and offload the affected limb. The correct technique is to hold the cane in the hand on the strong side and advance the cane and the weak leg together to create a stable tripod base. Holding the cane on the affected side shifts the center of gravity and increases fall risk. In addition, the cane should be kept about 15-20 cm (6-8 inches) from the foot for optimal balance.
