Trekking Pole - Collaspable and TSA?

Hi...

I've a condition (foot drop) which hinders walking without assistance. Normally I'm OK if I am careful, but found a single 'trekking' pole really helps balance and confidence - especially on cobblestones, historical sites, and hiking...

I've one at home, but it has a sharp metal tip and doesn't collapse fully.

I'm looking for something that gets to <20inches, TSA approved for carry on, and has a standard 'ski' grip - not the t-bar cane thingies...

Any suggestions o' sage ones?

TIA
