What are the benefits of using a quad cane over a basic cane and how do you know which one to purchase?
A quad cane offers more stability because the area of contact on the walking surface is greater. The contact area with a basic cane is minimal and is not intended for the support offered by a quad cane. There are different types of quad canes, each with a different size contact area. Your physician, physical therapist or medical supply professional can help you determine which style is best for your particular needs. Make sure you have ample instruction on how to use the quad cane.
What is a disadvantage to a four-point cane when compared to a single-point cane?
No real disadvantage....however, it is harder to use at an angle, and heavier (when made of the same material). Quad Canes are very stable and reliable, and do not rock back-and-forth very easily, but both kinds have plusses. many people prefer the quad cane for a number of reasons, but a good, single-point, standard cane can be just as useful. It really just depends on your needs and perspective. I added a link down below so that you can see how many different kinds of quad canes there are. Thanks btlwgn98, cane collector and aficionado.

What is the general price on a quad cane and will Medicare help with the cost?
The price on quad canes varies greatly depending on quality, material it is made of, how wide the base of stability is and whether it is adjustable or not. It looks like an average range for a basic cane is between $35 and $50. Medicare will help with the cost if the doctor has written a prescription.
What is the sound of the cane?
The sound of a cane hitting the ground varies depending on the material it's made of. A wooden cane makes a dull thud, while a metal cane produces a metallic clang. Some canes have rubber tips that create a softer sound when they make contact with the ground.
