You can reset the bind pose for the joints of your skinned character using the dagPose MEL command. For example:
dagPose -reset -name ";"name_of_bindPose joint_to_reset
If your new bind pose is very dissimilar from the original bind pose and you add a new influence object, unwanted bind results can occur in the area of the skin that has changed.
