To ensure your cane reaches your wrist crease, stand with your feet together and hold your hands outstretched in front of you, with your palms turned upward. When you hold your cane, your elbow should be slightly bent. To support the side that needs support, hold the cane in the hand opposite the one that's being supported. You can also consider if, for example, your right leg has been injured. Then, use the cane in your left hand.
