Silipos Partial Foot Sock for Transmetatarsal Amputation

If you've recently underwent an amputation of the foot or metatarsal row, you need socks that are soft, gentle and highly flexible to avoid aggravation of the sensitive area. The Silipos Partial Foot Sock for Transmetatarsal Amputation is made with patented "CoolMax" material that is incredibly breathable and lined with a medical-grade mineral oil that slowly releases throughout the day to rejuvenate and soften sensitive and cracked skin.

What's Included?

  • 1 x Partial Foot Sock

Please note that the Silipos Partial Foot Sock is not sold as a pair. If you require a pair of socks, you need to select two before checkout.

What Is a Partial Foot Sock?

A partial foot sock is a sock that covers a portion of the foot instead of the whole foot. Originally designed for transmetatarsal amputees, the Silipos Partial Foot Sock has great scope for use with anyone who's recently undergone partial or complete foot amputation surgery.

If you're concerned about shearing, impact, rubbing or irritation causing an issue with your foot post-operation, the Silipos Partial Foot Sock is a great way to guard the affected area. 

Who's Using Partial Foot Socks?

As mentioned above, partial foot socks were originally designed for transmetatarsal amputees who've recently had a portion of their foot removed. Great for covering the stump or residual limb left after amputation, the Silipos Partial Foot Sock helps guard against shear force, rubbing, irritation and discomfort following the operation.

Sizing Information for the Silipos Partial Foot Sock

The Silipos Partial Foot Sock is available in Regular or Extra Long. The regular size mimics the length of a standard sock, whereas the Extra Long style runs further up the ankle.

  • Slow-release, medical-grade mineral oil gel helps rejuvenate cracked and hard skin
  • Soft and comfortable material is irritation, itch and scratch-free

Rejuvenate Dry Skin

Following an amputation, the skin left at the end of your stump is likely to be incredibly aggravated and cracked. The Silipos Gel Partial Sock is lined with a gel that is gradually absorbed into the sensitive area, preventing further cracking and splitting.

Perfect for use alongside other gels and creams that you may be prescribed, the Silipos Gel Partial Sock also guards the foot whilst other treatments are performed, preventing contamination and infection.

More About Silipos Gel

Silipos gel products are made with mineral oil gels that provide soft, comfortable and non-abrasive protection against rubbing, irritation and constant-contact. This gel helps soothe and rejuvenate cracked and tired skin, minimising discomfort and preventing the breakout of conditions like eczema and dermatitis.

The secretion of gel protects the foot against shear force and impact while simultaneously releasing moisture-rich mineral oil that gently hydrates, softens and conditions the skin without the need for additional creams or lotions.

Can I Wear a Partial Sock With Shoes?

The Silipos Partial Foot Sock is a post-operative tool designed for the immediate period following amputation. It is washable and reusable, and can be used repeatedly in the months following your operation if your skin is still aggravated and sore.
