BK distal pain

Orthotic Prosthetic Center

Patient is a 77 years old male, bilateral BK (level 3+). Tried 3S

sockets. Patient expressed sharp pain when leg is lifted, no pain while

standing in legs. I assumed that distraction of the pin cause by the

weight of the prosthesis was the source of the pain but we were unable to

replicate discomfort by manually manipulating the pin. Any thoughts on

this phenomenon.
