The white female attachment is about two inches from center hole into red urinal. It works wonderfully for my husband without the white female attachment, but I haven't tried it as a female.

Inga - I have not personally used the device, but have recommended it for patients (male) who have urgency overnight and need something they can put into place quickly. It's designed for use in bed, so I imagine it would work if you are in a w/c, but I cannot say for certain. Hope this helps.

It recesses 4 inches at the top and at the bottom it goes down 2 inches and is 1 inch deep from the edge straight back to the outer seam of the circular part.

Sorry, but I don't use it in that configuration. Perhaps a female user would be better able to answer your question.

Inga, I have used 3 styles of female adapters for urinals and they have all worked best by holding the edges of the adapter firmly against my body, no matter how far it reaches underneath. If it's firm against me then it forms a seal so that urine does not leak out around the edges. If I am releasing a forceful stream from a full bladder I might feel some wetness on my skin inside the funnel but it goes down the hole into the bottle fast enough so I do not experience leakage around the outside edges. I hope this information is helpful.

The round bar that is located under the seat cushion is the lever that you use to adjust the height. Hope that helps.

I suppose you could take an entire section out and re-attach the shock cord. I'm about 5'4 1/2" and LOVE my cane chair. I've bought a few of them bc I'll lose one and can't live without it and I've really lost one on a train :-(. I'm a fan of the FOLDING cane chair, not the one that has a rigid leg (accidentally ordered that once due to poor product description).Carol's point is a good one, you are not perched atop it, it will make a tripod with your legs.

Honestly, I purchased one for my ankle. When my ankle swells, it gets a little snug and I sit down and rest. But, if I'm resting, it is so pain relieving and warm. Incredibrace has it's own website and you might want to go there (http://www.incrediwear.com). Their website says to measure two inches above the knee. I hope this helps. You probably can purchase for less at Amazon. Good luck if you decide to buy it. I love mine.

I am sitting in the chair now. If I put it all the way down, I am sitting about 14" off the ground. All the way up is about 18".

35.75" from inside of one upright to inside of other upright. Small short braces extend on one side only into that space, if that makes sense.It's 31" h from floor to bottom of top crossbar. Hope that helps! If you're talking about using it to help your mom pull herself up to a stand from a wheelchair that might work. Caution may require some weight like a sandbag on those small braces to keep her from pulling it over into her lap as she stands, depending on her weight and movement.

Not to imply any wrong doing on your part, but are the crutches adjusted to the correct height between your armpit and the grip? Your elbow shouldbe slightly bent (about 15 degrees) when your hand is on the grip. Do you have the correct crutch on the correct side? The cushion component/spring under your armpit should not be actually supporting any of your weight, but should flex down as you swing through. Depending on which t-shirt I was wearing, the little flap that hangs off the webbed part would pinch my inner arm (it was better with a different shirt). Also, I found the crutches much easier and smoother to use if I was going faster rather than slower. Hope this helps.

Also, consider wrapping smaller hand like towels around your ankle area so they'll cover the top part of your legs. Where the table's foam rollers point of contact is there. It'll offer some extra cushioning and comfort.

For most wheelchairs, you would lift up the fabric in the two back corners of the seat. Remove the screws and use them to attach the safety belt.

I believe so just put it close enough to the chair. Shouldn't be a problem. I used a wheel chair in rehab and I can picture using it as long as the wheels were locked.

The measurements were included in earlier answers. I thought it would retain it's shape well but after a few months I'd say it is starting to get squished out to the sides. I still use it because it got rid of the the discomfort in my tailbone. You may want to check with your wheelchair manufacturer. There are supportive surfaces designed for that purpose (beds and wheelchairs) which also prevent pressure sores. If he is a Medicare beneficiary, it may be partly reimbursable. I weight ~ 120#.

I used it about 3 months in a rehab after a ankle fusion with a cast almost up to my knee. I did go outside and to some restaurants and a movie. I did go backwards a little. The day I left the rehab I sold it to another patient. I was sorry I did but I did by another a more expensive Cadillac type which I don't use and like as much as I did this one

It's about 10 inches. If that's too long just wrap it around the ankle twice, that's what I usually do anyway.

I only use this brace when I'm exercising. If I sit on my legs, they do cut off the circulation as well as sitting for a long time in a chair. If I'm going to take a break from exercising, I usually will pull them down so that the bottom of the brace sits on the ankle and when I'm ready to start either hiking or playing tennis I just pull them back into place. I love this brace, one of the best I've ever worn.

It is about 20 1/2" between two armrests, and 25 1/2" from top of armrests to floor. They are fixed, not adjustable.

I was given this after my cast was removed. I had a broken ankle and had surgery. It was great

12 1/2 inches. My doctor said for the ankle, the higher model is better, but this did wonders for allowing my sprained ankle to heal.
