This item is not expensive and is easy to use, so you might get one for yourself. The same company sells an Easy Dose pill crusher that has a spoon in the well and a round metal crusher that is pushed onto the pill. The same catalog has a large selection of doorknob turners, scissors, special brushes for all kinds of housework, and key holders and turners. Many people also like reachers, one of the most frequently used home accessories. People with arthritis find them useful because it is painful to bend over to pick up something or too dangerous to get on a stool or ladder to reach up high.
Many catalogs have extensive models from which to choose.
Mobility Aids Canes, crutches, walkers, wheelchairs, and tri-wheeler power chairs are the principle mobility aids for people seriously affected by arthritis. If you have a problem with one leg, the use of a cane to take some of the weight off that leg improves mobility and reduces pain. It is important to remember that the cane is held in the hand opposite to the painful leg . When walking, the cane is extended when the bad leg is bearing the weight of walking. This may seem too obvious, but people often use a cane on the same side time after time.
