Uses of Phantom Sensations Induced by Global and Local Modifications of the Prosthetic Socket as Somatosensory Feedback During Walking in Lower Limb Amputees
Following lower-limb amputation, the loss of somatosensory information from the missing limb renders walking less automatic, more cognitively demanding, and often asymmetric, which can lead to secondary pathologies.
