Hello List,
I have previously requested help in finding a source for shrinker socks for partial foot level amputees. Responses included “make your own” using Tubi Grip or Modelsoft compression stockings with the end sewn over, and also ordering custom Juzo shrinkers. Your local Juzo rep can provide you with a measurement form and they can make a shrinker for any level.
My next request is similar but I am looking for compression socks / stockings. These would have a lower compression gradient, and be thicker and softer than Juzo shrinkers. Something that can be worn all day, inside the prosthesis, just like regular compression stockings but for a partial foot amputee. This patient currently wears Hood or KnitRite partial foot cotton socks but they have no compression. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
