Considering a Mobility Aid for My Flareup

During this past flareup I’ve been having a lot of trouble walking due to weakness and pain, making me even fall down a few times. I was thinking about getting a cane to use at home to help me keep my balance and prevent falling down and save energy. I am only 18 so I feel very hesitant to get a mobility aid, though I think it could definitely help me.
