Quad canes can also be used on stairs, unlike a standard or wheeled walker. While sitting, a quad cane can stand next to you and will not fall over. When rising from sitting, be sure not to use the quad cane to pull yourself out of the chair, as it may tip over. Stand up first, and then grab the handle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow to Choose a Quad Cane\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThere are basically two types of quad canes: wide and narrow base quad canes. Wide base quad canes (WBQC) have a larger base where the four legs are attached. This helps provide more support and improved stability while walking. A wide base quad cane is heavier and may be more difficult to maneuver. A narrow base quad cane (NBQC) has a narrower base where the legs are attached. Although this provides less support than a wide base quad cane, it is easier to lift and maneuver while walking.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTo walk with a quad cane, follow these simple steps.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHold the cane in one hand.
