Skin Care 101

Web Development Fact Sheet

Created 3/2022 –
Proper skin care is essential to the health and mobility of those living with limb loss or limb difference. Whether you have an upper limb or lower limb loss or difference, the residual skin must maintain its integrity for the proper and comfortable fit and wear of a prosthesis. Prosthetic sockets trap sweat and prevent air from circulating around your residual limb, which can create a virtual paradise for bacteria. Bacterial and fungal infections can lead to skin irritation, abrasions and eventually skin breakdown. Left unchecked, this could lead to infection and ulcerations, leaving you unable to use your prosthesis for an extended length of time.
