We had a support group speaker who recommended trekking poles over canes. I'm not falling (yet?), but I intend to try the trekking poles when & if I need them. She said their advantages are that they are not so rigid as canes, have a little "give" to them, provide stability, and improve upper body strength. Plus they look cool! They do need to be properly fitted to your size.
