To the prosthetists,
I have a seasoned bilateral transtibial amputee with locking
gel(Alps)liners.
He perspires considerably that at times his limbs have slipped out of
the liners.
He has tried the Silver Sheaths and an antiperspirant like Certain Dri
but it burned on his skin.
Any other suggestions as to what he can do.
Thanks
