ChatMedical Grade Mineral Oil Gel with self-adhesive backing
Clean the area you want to apply Pressure Relief Gel Padding to remove oil and dirt. Carefully trim any desired shape with a scissors. Remove the self-adhesive backing and carefully position your pad and press firmly. There are two schools of thought with respect to placement. If you need to relieve a bone from pressure then place the gel padding just below the area you are trying to relieve. If friction and shear stress is your issue then adhere the padding over the boney area within your socket.
Silipos recommends that you hand wash your Pressure Relief Padding with mild soap and water. Rinse thoroughly and pat dry.
Do not place silipos product on an open would. If irritation, discomfort occurs, discontinue use and notify your physician and/or Prosthetist immediately.
