Here to remind amputation friends, when you go out must pay attention to safety and advance weather forecast. You should do a good job of protection, if there is rain warning,please as little as possible not to go out.
If the prosthesis is in the rain or water in the rainy days ,we can take below urgent steps to handle it.

When the carbon fiber splice foot board is exposed to rain/water.
Make sure the foot board is removed from the foot skin (in this case, you need to use a shoehorn to take it out), dry the foot skin and foot board with a cold air blower, and then put it back together.
The integrated foot board is in rain/water. Do not separate the foot board from the foot skin. Dry it directly with a hair dryer.
If the smart foot is caught in rain/water (rechargeable prosthetics), please contact your prosthetic fitting company immediately, explain the situation and ask them to give solutions.
If your knee/hip gets rained/flooded, use a hair dryer to cool it and call your prosthetic fitting company to explain the situation and ask them to give a solution.
The mechanical part of the upper limb prosthesis is soaked in rain/water, and it can also be treated with cold air from a hair dryer. It is best to contact the prosthesis company to explain the situation at the same time, and see if they have a better solution.
Do not move the screw of your prosthetics in an emergency. If you move the screw, your artificial leg force line may be "confused" and you may feel that you have changed a leg again.
After the storm is over, try to choose a sunny day to go to your prosthetic fitting company to do a "maintenance" for your prosthetic for the safety of the later use.
