Prosthetic limbs must be fitted in close contact with the required limb; any looseness would swiftly promote chafing and subsequent blistering with the further risk of infection. Unfortunately such close skin contact often causes excessive sweating a major cause of skin chafing.
Odaban has been approved by BLESMA ( British Limbless Ex-Servicemens Assoc.) for the last 30 years and is a well tried and tested product that really does help prevent such problems.
How Odaban Can Help
Fine cotton socks have been used for many years to help wick away wetness between limb and prosthesis and are still useful in reducing friction and helping to keep the skin dry. Odaban, however, with it's powerful drying abilities, special silicone formulation and dispensing mechanism is able to safely and drastically reduce the rate of perspiration of the limb which enables much longer and safer wearing times of the prosthesis.
