People who use leg prostheses wonder how to care for their prosthesis and what they should pay attention to when using prostheses. This is one of the most important issues not only for people who use prostheses for legs, but also for people who use arm prostheses. It is very important to harmonize the prosthesis and the amputated area, especially when using a prosthesis.

 

After the leg prostheses and arm prostheses are specially designed and given to the person, the follow-up of the person should be done very carefully. Prosthetic users, on the other hand, can reconsider the joint features by having prostheses made according to the functions they want to use. However, it is extremely important to keep the area clean while using prostheses. If there is any redness or swelling in the area, it is recommended to stop using the prosthesis.

 

In addition, the inside of the prosthesis should be cleaned daily. Never walk around with damp or dirty dentures. You should wipe your dentures daily with a clean wet soapy cloth and then remove the soap with a dry wet cloth. Finally, the inner part of the prosthesis should be wiped with a dry cloth until it is completely dry and the prosthesis should be adapted to the amputated area.
