I have a below knee prosthetic leg, so people usually ask about that. I hear alot of "Does it hurt" and "What happened?"

KayraJordyn · F

It gets sore, yes? The point where the prosthetic meets your flesh? I'm no stranger to pain that doesn't feel like it should make sense, so I'm curious! @StormyLynn I love people who have differences, but make it work and make it an asset instead of a deficit!

@KayraJordyn Deficit.

@Serenitree I said defecate!

StormyLynn · 26-30, F

@KayraJordyn Oh indeed, it does get sore from time to time. The leg isn't a weight bearing body part, so the point where flesh meets prosthetic can get quite sore, especially since I still run a couple miles most days. The pain aspect doesn't really bother me as much as it used to.

Serenitree · F

@KayraJordyn Yes. You did say defecate. I don't usually correct people's misspellings, but......well. This time it seemed the right thing to do?
