A cane, often referred to as a rod, is a long, slender stick typically used for support while walking or standing. Canes are commonly made from materials like wood, metal, or fiberglass and can be designed for various purposes, including mobility assistance for individuals with disabilities or injuries. In addition to their practical use, canes can also serve as decorative items or be used in activities like fishing or hiking. Some canes are equipped with features such as grips, tips for better traction, or even built-in storage compartments, enhancing their functionality for users.
