What does the weight limit on crutches refer to? Can a 400-lb person use 325-lb limit crutches safely?

The weight limit on the crutches indicates the maximum weight that the crutches can support. You do not want to exceed the weight limit as they could collapse and cause further injury. A patient would need to get crutches that are appropriate for his or her size and weight. A 400-lb person should look for bariatric or heavy duty crutches that have a higher weight limit.
