MJCM Posted July 25, 2022 Share Posted July 25, 2022 Have you checked bigger Pharmacies? For example the one in BIG C Extra? Or Fascino, which also has a shop near Soi Buakhao on Pattaya Klang road! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KhunLA Posted July 25, 2022 Share Posted July 25, 2022 (edited) Going for stylish or practical (retractable aluminum). As mentioned, pharmacy for practical or any tourist / trinket shop will have wooden ones. Of course there is always online, LAZ has more than a few available.

In the UK they'd be classed as something like 'Mobility Centres', so selling various kinds of mobility aids like walking sticks, not just renting out the scooters. Here though, who knows, but it's worth having a look of there's one nearby, you could even ask there about where to buy a good walking stick.

brianthainess Posted July 25, 2022 Author Share Posted July 25, 2022 Thanks for replies and I know i've left it too late to order from Laz, as I leave for Patts on Thursday 28th and no shops near me that sell them, so no I have not checked out anywhere in Pattaya, and will only be there a couple of nights, then on to BKK where i'll need to walk. Dam hip playing up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the basement of Central Festival on beach road there is a medical supply shop. I remember having seen things like wheelchairs. Worth a look. Boots and Watson's just a short walk away.

crouchpeter Posted July 28, 2022 Share Posted July 28, 2022 Depending on how sore your hip is, you might find the Al. folding sticks are too flexible, and won't feel secure. Go for stainless with the 3 feet. Much more secure. Of course a Zimmer frame is the ultimate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
