Question
it appears that the left handlebar originates in the center of the device rather than at the left side, as the right appears to be. is this so, and isnt it awkward that way also, what is the black bag-like thing? is it removable?
Answer
Dear Ms. Thompson:
The rollator has a swivel wheel upfront, which makes it easy to turn. It is also stable and weighs less than a comparable 4 wheel model. The bag and the basket are removable. Please let us know if you require further assistance.

Question
Hello, I have 2 different surgeries that required the use of absorbable sutures internally. In both cases, with different types of suture material my body would not dissolve a lot of the material. Instead it began rejecting it by sending it to the surface of the wound and even pushing it out in other areas near the incision. What type of material would you suggest be used for me as I have an upcoming knee replacement - to replace the knee which developed infection from the sutures which did not dissolve. Thank you.
Answer
Please advise of the type of sutures that were originally used, this way we can identify the type of suture that may be of use in your upcoming surgery.
