Greetings List,
I am working with a patient who has a Chopart amputation with a slight
plantarflexion contracture and a bony prominence in the anterior lateral
distal area. She has tenderness and a closed lesion at this point with
increasing use. She is working with a Physical Therapist for improved range
of motion and reduction of her contracture. What recommendations do you have
for silicone impregnated socks for this patient? I have checked with Silipos
and Knit Rite without success.
Thank You,
David Gerecke, CPO, FAAOP
