Do you know that traditional methods of cleaning your prosthetic liner may not be as effective as you think?

As a prosthetic user, you’ve probably heard that you should clean your prosthetic liner with soap and water. However, this method is not always effective in removing all the dirt, sweat, and bacteria that can accumulate. In fact, using regular soap can be harmful to the liner material and can cause it to break down more quickly. Soap is made from fat and can leave a residue that creates a breeding ground for bacteria and fungus.

One of the major problems that prosthetic users face is that excessive sweat and heat can build up inside the prosthetic liner. This often leads to an accumulation of bacteria and other harmful microorganisms, which can produce waste products that cause skin irritation, odor, and other related issues. Studies have shown that 74% of amputees will experience skin issues related to their prosthetic liner, and 70% complain of odor. If the liner is not properly cleaned on a regular basis, it can lead to more serious skin infections and other health issues. To prevent these problems, it is extremely important for prosthetic users to take proactive steps to maintain the hygiene of their liner.
