QID 218557 (Type "218557" in App Search)

The patient has been doing extremely well postoperatively and has started using a prosthesis for the past few months. His mother is concerned, however, because he has pain over his lateral knee and medial distal residual limb at the end of a long day of wear. This pain prevents him from wearing the prosthesis the following day. What adjustment is likely needed to improve prosthesis alignment?
