Crutches are sold in medical supply stores, so go buy a pair of them. If you have never used them let me warn you they are not easy to use and they hurt under your arms.

How do i explain to my mom the i want crutches?
I actually really want crutches, too! You maybe could explain it to her, and if she says no, tell her you want a raise in your allowance and possibly you'll get one, and maybe save up for crutches. I want them so badly, too. My grandpa's a foot doctor, so he gave me crutches. They were too tall, so I'm trying to get them. Only I don't get allowance, so I maybe could try growing! LOL! I wish you luck though!
Does a twisted ankle need crutches?
It depends on you. If there's no fracture, than you don't need crutches unless you want crutches. If you feel you cannot walk easily/ step on your sprained ankle at all, than you should get crutches. If you can limp around just fine, then there is no reason to get crutches.

Where do you say the pain is to get on crutches?
Crutches should not be used unless there is a specific need. Walking with crutches can cause falls, can result in pulled muscles, and can create new pain in an otherwise healthy person. Crutches shift the body's center of gravity and should not be used as a "plaything". As well, unless crutches are fitted properly for height and weight, the use of crutches can cause shoulder injuries.Instead of wishing to be on crutches, discuss why you are feeling you want them. Do you feel people on crutches get more attention? That they get out of responsibilities or get special perks? If so, discuss with your parents or a counselor what you feel you lack as far as attention.You might also talk to someone who has had to maneuver on crutches. It is not easy. It makes the arms, shoulders, back and the "unaffected" leg feel sore. It can create hip pain. Crutches cause inconvenience since you can't use your hands or arms to carry things. I bet people who have used crutches will tell you that they hated every minute and couldn't wait for the day they didn't have to use them anymore.

Irritated a nerve around breast using crutches?
The proper way to use crutches is to place your weight on your hands, not under your arms. Crutches should be adjusted so that when you are using them, there is space between your armpit and the top of the crutches. If you are already using the crutches correctly yet you still have an irritated nerve you can try different crutches that wrap around your forearms, or use a walker or wheelchair.
