Hi Everyone,

I'm currently working with a TF amputee and we have him on a 4-seal Medi
liner for suspension. He has been doing really well with the system but
occasionally gets air seeping between his skin and the liner which causes
fitting and suspension issues, the seal between the liner and socket is not
affected. He has no scarring and has well shaped limb. I've tried the
correct size liner and one size down as well and this doesn't seem to make a
difference. When the air gets in he has to take everything off and start
fresh.

Looking to see if anyone else has run into this situation and if you found a
remedy. He loves the system and doesn't want to change drastically.

Thanks

Chris
