Summary
| Description |
English: A stump bears the same relation to an artificial leg that a natural foot does to a shoe. Comfort and cleanliness demand that a sock should be worn on the stump, the same as on the foot. A sock in either case provides a medium for collecting and absorbing the particles of waste and moisture that are thrown off from the skin,and by removing the socks, airing, and frequently washing them, the stump will be kept in a more healthy condition, and the socket of the leg will be better cared for. |
