Dear Listserve Members:
I have a trans-femoral amputee client from the middle east who is concerned
that he will be more sweaty in a suction socket than in one with socks. Does
anyone have any insight into this that they might share? He's talking about
60 degree temperatures. I'm just not sure which socket will be sweatier
under those conditions. Any help would be appreciated.
