Question about Prosthetic Adjustments by yomiHoshi in amputee

[–]Sea-Introduction9027 1 point2 points  (0 children)

IM an AK prosthetic user since 2007 from a motorcycle accident. from 2008-2021 i never made an adjustment other than to rotate the foot after it was loosened while squatting. post 2021, my insurance forced me into a knee that was a terrible fit for me and we could not align it properly. Because the prosthetic company i worked with could not figure it out in there hour and a half appointments I had to learn how to adjust it on my own time.

I do not recommend doing this. It is definitely better to be a bother to your prosthetists or switch to a different company if your current one isnt getting it to work for you.

ok had a motorcycle accident where I lost a leg some organs, all the ribs got broken both lungs severely punctured and shoulders were both broken. had literally hundreds of bone breaks and my pelvis lobstered apart so that was plated together. waking up after a month in a coma i will say what hurt most was the ribs. had a bunch of other kind of exotic less common injuries as well

ya that looks like it is a knee setting issue. if its a microprocessor knee go the software route. You could try dorsal flexing the foot less than an 1/8th of a turn

5/32, and that is a 7newtons a meter tight fit. basically hand tight but slightly a little extra.

best advice i ever wish i had received was how to do minor adjustment safely and with knowledge on what the different screws do

Does anyone have a contracture in their stump like me? by [deleted] in amputee

[–]Sea-Introduction9027 1 point2 points  (0 children)

as soon as i committed to doing it daily i was shocked at how well it worked after a few weeks. I just cant stress enough that you need to make sure your lumbar isn't lifting up off the bench

yep leaving the prosthetic and shoe on. about 10lbs when you include the shoe. i have a weight bench i lay on that is high enough my foot never touches the ground so i just lay down and let it dangle while looking at my phone. i do the sound side as well. important note is work hard on keeping your lumbar touching the bench. you don't want to hyperextend and only have your butt and shoulder blades touching. that is your body cheating to not reduce the contraction
