FAQs

What is a below-knee socket fitted to?

A below-knee socket is shaped around the residual limb after a transtibial amputation. Its fit and suspension need to be planned with the prosthetic foot and the user’s rehabilitation needs.

Should a loose socket simply be tightened with extra padding?

Ask the prosthetic team to review the fit and advise on any prescribed socks or interface changes. Unassessed padding is not a substitute for checking why the socket has become loose.

What information helps with a replacement socket enquiry?

Mention the current prosthesis, suspension system, foot component and reasons for replacement. Ask which scan, cast or measurement information is required before a new socket is specified.
