1
Lateral & distal redness
-socket too large
*add socks, or pads
2
Proximal lateral & Distal medial redness
-adducted socket
*abduct socket
-socket ML too large
*add ML pads @ condyle
-foot too outset
*inset foot
3
Anterior proximal & posterior distal pressure/redness
-insufficient initial socket flexion
-shoe change w/ decreased heel height
-heel lever too short / toe lever too long
*heel bumper cushion too soft
4
Patient bottoming out/vericose hyperplasia
-Pt decreased limb volume
-inappropriate sock ply
-socket made too big initially
-lack of distal contact
5
Fib Head Redness
-greater proximal pressure than distal pressure
-inadequate relief built into socket
-inappropriate donning of liner
6
Anterior Pain/pressure & distal lateral pressure (heel of pt is off the ground)
-insufficient socket flexion/PF foot (causes pt to hyperextend in stance so the compensate with hyperflexion
*Flex socket
7
Proximal medial pressure & distal lateral pressure
(varus moment)
-foot too inset
-socket too abducted
*shift socket medially
*adduct socket
8
Distal medial pressure, proximal lateral pressure
(valgus moment)
-foot too outset
-socket too adducted
*shift socket laterally
*abduct socket
9
Proximal patella pain, distal posterior pain
(pt toe coming up on midstance)
-foot too anterior/socket too posterior to foot
-heel cushion too soft
*move socket forward
*add firmer heel wedge in px foot
