Question
Is the otoscope interchangable. I am looking for a combo or multi use if it comes that way for, ears, throat and eyes. What would you suggest

Answer

Debra,

This item # is for only an otoscope. An otoscope is mainly used for the ears and throat. You may want a set that includes both the otoscope & the ophthalmoscope head.  I would suggest the following:

http://www.medical-supplies-equipment-company.com/product/ppf/id/22023/new_prod_full.asp

It includes an otoscope head , Ophthalmoscope head to interchange ,with a C handle,   laryngeal mirrors, a bent arm illuminator and ear specula’s.

Question
I use my walker outside often and my rear walker tips tend to wear out really fast. I need something with more durability that does NOT make noise. Has anything new come out in the market Are there any make out of titanium?Doreen

Answer
A simple and an inexpensive solution that seems to work well is to take a couple of tennis balls, make a circular incision, align the incision with the walker tubing (without the tips) and push the balls in so that they fit through snugly over the tubing.  The tennis balls stay on well, they are inexpensive to replace and have a long endurance.

Answer

Dear Smith:

If you can find a comfortable position for your arm so that the tendons are not strained and the arm is in the relaxed position, it should aid the healing process while also limiting the range of motion.
