After my last surgery I changed prosthesists because my last one really seemed inept. I have just started with Hanger's and got my leg only five days ago. In two days I will be going for my first check up. I have a couple of areas that are really bothering me and I wanted to know if this is normal for the break in period, or if they are things I should really make sure get addressed. One thing is it is riding really high in the pelvic area and it hurts all the time and makes me not want to use it. I think that it is so far up against by pelvic bone that it does not allow the residual limb to get all the way down in the socket, and this seems to cause some turning in my foot when I walk. I get it on straight and next thing I know my toe is turned way out to the right. Also it feels very high up in the butt bone, and that is painful as well, and others say it makes me look like I throw my leg up when I walk. I am using a cane all the time, and even though, I have fallen once and it hurt a lot because of how far it is already crammed into the groin. Took me awhile to get back up after that one. And I do not feel that I can bear weight evenly because of the groin and butt pressure. So, am I doing something wrong, do adjustments need to be made, or is this all part of the break in period? Thanks for any input on the delicate subject.
