Listen "How to Manage Limb Volume: Stop Socket Pain and Improve Prosthetic Fit"
Episode Synopsis
Socket too tight in the morning and too loose by afternoon?
You are not imagining it — limb volume changes are real, common, and totally manageable.
In this episode of Cosi Talks, I break down why your residual limb keeps changing shape (even years after surgery) and the practical tools that can help you control swelling, improve socket comfort, and prevent skin breakdown.
We cover:
• Why limb volume fluctuates throughout the day
• What really happens during the healing phases after amputation
• The top reasons prosthetic fit becomes painful
• How socks, shrinkers, adjustable sockets, and good alignment make a huge difference
• Daily strategies to stay comfortable and confident — long-term
If limb changes are messing with your prosthesis, this episode will help you take back control of your fit, your comfort, and your sanity.
