Lower Limb Prosthetics
Lower limb prosthetics refer to artificial devices that are designed to replace a missing or amputated leg. These prosthetic devices are customized to fit the individual's residual limb.
Lower limb prosthetics are designed to replace a leg that has been amputated either above the knee, below the knee, or at the ankle joint. These devices include a socket that fits over the remaining part of the leg, a rod or pylon extending from the socket, and a foot or ankle component for support and movement. Prosthetic limbs play a crucial role in enhancing the quality of life for those who have undergone amputations, helping them regain mobility, independence, and confidence.
Upper Limb Prosthetics
Upper limb prosthetics refer to artificial devices that are designed to replace a missing or amputated arm, hand, or part of the upper limb.
Upper limb prosthetics are useful for people who have lost an arm above the elbow, below the elbow, or at the wrist. These devices include a socket that fits over the remaining limb, a rod extending from the socket, and a hand or arm part for support and movement. Prosthetic limbs significantly enhance the lives of amputees by restoring mobility, independence, and confidence.
Special Prosthetics
Special prosthetics refer to custom-designed artificial limbs that are created to meet the specific needs of an individual.
Special prosthetic devices are made for people with special physical needs, like those with birth conditions, injuries, or amputations. These can be for arms, legs, or even other body parts like ears or noses. Making these special prosthetics involves a team of healthcare experts, including prosthetists, physical therapists, and doctors.

FAQ's
Some people are ready for their temporary prosthesis as early as 2-weeks following the
removal of all staples and sutures. This will vary from person to person. As a general rule,
when the surgical site is fully healed and most of the swelling has disappeared, you will be
ready for the next step. Each patient’s healing time differs depending on their overall health
condition.
You should wear your shrinker 23 hours per day (unless told differently by your physician)
and change it every other day. If you do not have a second shrinker, another one can be
purchased, Your shrinker should be removed when bathing, and if any numbness or tingling
occurs.
Walking will vary because healing is different for each person. On average, healing time will
range from 1-3 months. However, it could be longer for patients with diabetes or other
health related issues. Your ability to walk is determined by how hard you work in therapy,
and regain strength and range of motion.
Phantom pain will also vary from person to person. Some people never experience it, while
others experience it from time to time forever. Often times when you are fit with your
prosthesis, the pain or sensation may decrease due to the total contact provided by the
socket. Sometimes, stump shrinkers also provide relief and there are a number of
techniques that can be used to reduce phantom pains that your therapist will discuss with
you.
Physical and Occupational Therapy plays a very important part in your rehabilitation
process. You will learn new techniques for walking which are key to a speedy recovery.

Yes, your residual limb will shrink as the swelling goes down and will change from a bulbous shape to a thinner, cone like shape. There are various methods used for reducing the swelling that include wrapping the limb, and exercises.
Your liner should be washed every night. Make sure it is cleaned thoroughly to remove any layers of bacteria/dirt build-up. In addition, you should disinfect your liner once a week by cleaning it with rubbing alcohol.
Not necessarily, however, better and more efficient service can be provided when we see
patients in our Clinic. This allows us to access the tools in our lab and allows us to make adjustments to your prosthesis quickly and efficiently. If transportation and/or physical challenges are difficult for you, a home visit can be arranged by calling our Clinic.
The number of renovations to your home will depend upon your personal needs. Many patients will need a shower chair (Med Supply carries a number of options which can be found here), detachable shower head and grab rails for the bathroom. You may also need to consider a ramp for the entrance to your home.
Yes, there are amputees involved in just about every sport. If you have participated in sports prior to your amputation, you can probably continue afterwards. Many sports have organised programs for amputees. Please be sure and let your prosthetist know about your desire to play sports, so they can design your prosthesis with that in mind. Most sport-specific prosthetics are not covered by insurance, you may incur an out-of-pocket cost.
