Title:
sweating and gel liners
Text:
I have a young man - transtibial- (26 y/o) 290 pounds 6'2 very active
football coach and player who wants to go to a gel liner and suction sleeve or pin
system from a hard socket and wool socks with suprapatellar strap
suspension. Within two hours of putting on the gel liner he is sweating (he sweats
alot) around the proximal 3-4 of the gel liner and it slowly slides down his leg
until his leg wont stay on. When he wears a suspension sleeve with the
liner- the same occurs- the suspension sleeve slides down his leg from the
perspiration that wets his skin.
Any suggestions, solutions, options would be greatly appreciated.
