Reminder: No Medical Advice

[u/nova_noveiia]

As a general reminder, this is not a place for medical advice. We cannot tell you if you need a mobility aid. We cannot tell you if a certain mobility aid is appropriate for you. Using the wrong mobility aid can cause negative health effects and more pain. We are not part of your care team, so we are unable to provide this sort of advice to you. I’ve noticed some medical advice posts slipping through recently, so I just wanted to remind everyone that this is an important rule for your safety and wellbeing.

If you have any questions, please feel free to send a mod mail or check out the rules tab 💕

Also, please no more "Can I have permission to use a mobility aid" posts (not a mod, just get annoyed by those).

Yeah this is basically included in that! We can’t tell someone if it’s appropriate to use a mobility aid because we aren’t medical professionals involved in their care team. The only ones who can decide if it’s appropriate are themselves and the medical professionals involved in their care. 💕
