So perhaps you can enlighten me a little bit about what phantom limb pain is in the science aspect of it.

Max Ortiz CatalanGUEST
So you touch in so many different aspects about phantom limb pain and what it makes it so fascinating from the scientific viewpoint and so difficult to treat and sort of like overcome from the clinical side.

Max Ortiz CatalanGUEST
It's made out of physiological and psychological factors, so things that come from your body, the way it works, and then how you react to it.

Max Ortiz CatalanGUEST
It's very unfortunate that we are less sympathetic to conditions that we don't understand.

Max Ortiz CatalanGUEST
So if you see somebody walking and they fall and they break a leg or they have like a cut or something, you can understand that pain, you can relate to that pain, and then people tend to be more sympathetic.

It's not the material is non-breathable so there are advantages and disadvantages to the socket you're right but also what I notice is that if you don't have an elbow like for me it's impossible I don't have osseointegration but for me for example with the socket it's impossible to lift my arm above the head but I'm pretty sure that if you have osseointegration you gain that extra level of movement so where you can lift your arm above your head.
