Solution

The correct option is A walking
Crutches, also called the walking sticks, serve as a walking aid to people with injury or defect in either or both their legs. Usually, our body weight is supported by our legs. But in the case of a disability, the crutches shift the bodyweight to our upper body and the base of the sticks, causing least discomfort to the legs.
