Care of Orthotics refers to the proper maintenance and handling of orthotic devices to ensure their effectiveness, comfort, hygiene, and longevity. Orthotics can include foot inserts, braces, splints, and other support devices. Foot Orthotics (Insoles, Shoe Inserts) • Remove when not in use: Take them out of shoes to let them air out. • Avoid machine washing unless the manufacturer states it's safe. • Inspect for wear: Replace if cracked, deformed, or no longer supportive (usually every 6–12 months with regular use). ________________________________________ Braces and Splints (Ankle, Knee, Wrist, etc.) • Follow specific cleaning instructions for straps and pads. • Check fasteners (Velcro, buckles) for wear and functionality. • Skin care: Monitor for signs of irritation or pressure sores. Clean and dry skin before wearing. #How to clean orthotic insoles# #Foot orthotics maintenance# #Brace cleaning tips# #When to replace orthotics# #artificiallimb # polio caliper # AFO#splint # knee brace # fracture brace# #surat#pune#kolkata#mumbai#
