This may sound a silly question but I am a BKA and wondered how other people found the easiest way to get dressed with or without using you prosthetic? Thank You

The classic answer to this is to dress the prosthesis first. Then donn the prosthesis on your limb and pull the clothing up and into place on yourself.

Thank You tedtrower that is how I have been doing it, I put on my trousers with prosthetic in place stand up to do them up etc so I took this as using the aid ie the prosthetic in order to get dressed. I think they are trying to confuse me (which isnt hard!) .

I'm getting zippers installed in the inseam of my favorite pants, up to my mid thigh to easily dress and make modifications to my leg during the day.

Sounds Like a good idea...I just tend to resort to wearing shorts during times when I seem to need to pay a lot of attention to the leg, but that can get chilly sometimes! Let us know how the zippers work out...
