Below Knee Prosthesis

The patient has returned to the office today complaining of pressure on the posterior aspect of her
socket. At today's visit we find that the modification for the popliteal area is causing pressure and
discomfort to her. As I cannot change this in the socket itself, I will remake the socket. At today's visit 1 have replaced her original socket back on to her prosthesis and will remake the socket with appropriate modifications. We will follow up with her in 1 week.
