Question
I know that for paper that is bleached, the bleach is washed out afterwards. Do you know if the same applies hereThanks,Leah

Answer

Dear Ms. Mudd:

Thank you for your inquiry.  We are not familiar with the processing process for cotton balls.  It would stand to reason that given the natural color of cotton, bleaching for that purpose may not be neccessary, however, other cleansing processes may be applicable.

Question
I bought a cast cover from you at a discounted price due to the fact that the first one I purchased had several puncture holes in it after wearing it once. Now the second one had the same problem 3 weeks ago and I now have a MRSA bacterial infection in that foot. Please advise me what you would like me to do. Sincerely Janice Smith

Answer

Janice,

Thank you for your patience. We must advise that any product issues must be reported to MSEC within the 30 day returns timeframe to ensure prompt care and issuance of replacement if approved by the manufacturer. We have reviewed your order and returns history and the only defect issue was reported after the 30 day returns timeframe, however due to the inconvenience, MSEC discounted the cost of your replacement.

As it has been over 4 months since the last product was shipped, any issues with the product must now be taken up with the manufacturer.  Their name is Invacare and phone number is 1-800-225-4792

Please note, MSEC will not be held responsible for the misuse of this product.
