A small detail of disability rehabilitation After the thigh amputation , the balance of the muscles that control the hip joint is disrupted, so the residual limb will involuntarily flex, that is, the residual limb will tilt upward in a relaxed state. The residual limb is in a flexed position for a long time, which is easy to cause flexion contracture of the hip joint, which is very unfavorable for the future installation of a thigh prosthesis. Therefore, when resting in the supine position, it is recommended that the user lie down completely. If the residual limb is already slightly upturned, a pillow can be placed on it to press it. For users who have just amputated, it is recommended to do more prone positions on the hospital bed, that is, lie flat on the bed with the head turned to the healthy side, or place a soft pillow under the residual limb to keep the hip joint a little stretched. Do this pose 3-4 times a day for 20-30 minutes each time. For calf amputees, the knee joint should also be kept as straight as possible when in bed or in a wheelchair. Everyone knows that after amputation, the residual limb is prone to edema. How to solve the problem of residual limb swelling? A simple, effective and very economical way is to use elastic bandages to shape the residual limb. Applying pressure to the residual limb through elastic bandages is of great help to the venous return of the residual limb, the atrophy and shape of the residual limb, and can also relieve phantom limb pain to a certain extent. Amputee users will experience discomfort when wearing a prosthesis, such as pain, muscle pulling, wound pulling, or numbness in the residual limb. At this time, the sensitivity of the surface skin of the residual limb is reduced and the tolerance of the residual limb end is increased. Strength becomes more important. We can use a rough towel to wrap the end of the stump, then pull the ends of the towel with both hands and rub the surface of the stump back and forth. To strengthen the stimulation later, you can also use a soft brush to gently brush the end of the stump back and forth. For the discomfort of the suture at the end of the residual limb when wearing the prosthesis, it is recommended that the user press the skin at the wound with both hands, and do relative movements along both sides of the suture, 10-15 minutes each time, and can do it several times a day. Increase the elasticity and stretch resistance of the skin at the wound. shijiazhuang aosuo O&p
