Cleaning your prosthetic liner or skin fit is one of the most
important aspects of a successful hygiene routine. Liners and skin
fits can get dirty quickly, especially with heavy daily use.

A dirty liner, in addition to causing unwanted odor, can cause a
whole barrel of problems that can escalate quickly. Some minor
irritation can all too easily graduate into full-blown infection and
make it painful to use your prosthetic.

Additionally, cleaning your prosthetic often can prevent it from
wearing out sooner than it should. Establishing a daily, weekly, and
monthly hygiene routine is an important step to making sure you stay
healthy and mobile.
