This is my first time shopping for a cane and I need help 🥲

I'm going to be honest with y'all, I'm still debating about getting myself a mobility aid. For some background, I'm 20 years old and suffering from fibromyalgia, thoracic + lumbar disc herniation, and scoliosis. More specific details include: shin splints, osteoarthritis (specifically knees, hands, wrists, and shoulders), anterior pelvic tilt, and hip dysplasia on the right side. I really don't want to use a wheelchair, so I'm wondering which cane would be good for me. Any help or advice is welcome, especially if you have any advice for overcoming internalized ableism and not downplaying my pain.
