Title:
Hand and glove
Text:
I have a BE patient on a budget. I got him a simple Hosmer hand with a glove
of an Otto Bock color he selected. He is happy except that the prosthetic
hand is much narrower than his hand and the glove looks so fake. I can't
disagree with him on this. What can he do without spending thousands? Any
tricks out there? Can I glue a material such as, for instance, cloud crepe,
to the side of the hand to widen it? Is there some home remedy to put freckle
and hair type splotches on the exterior of the glove?
Thanks, all.
