An upper forearm support assembly is provided with a forearm cuff member, the vertical axis of which is generally aligned with the vertical axes of the hand rest and the lower support assembly, wherein the forces exerted by the weight of the user on the crutch are transmitted directly through the aligned lower support assembly and hand rest for distribution to the hand of the user as located on the hand rest and through the forearm of the user as positioned in said cuff member.
