I am a LBK amputee. Before my surgery I use to study various forms of martial arts. I am thinking of returning to studying Karate specifically. My question is, I use both a suction prosthetic and a pin socket prosthetic. If anybody in the group studies Karate, I am curious what type of prosthetic do you use and, if you have any difficulty performing kicks.

I am a LBK amputee. I just discovered a blister on my residual limb, down towards the bottom very close to my shin bone. I was wondering if anybody in the community has experienced a similar issue. If so how did you treat it and what did you do to prevent it from happening again. At the moment I’m kind of stuck because I’m afraid to put on my prosthetic in case I make it worse. Any insight or help you can provide would be greatly appreciated.
