Though
amputation is dreaded word for any healthy individual but for some individuals
it is the reality that they have to put up with. Whatever is the reason behind
the amputation surgery, it brings with it unforeseen challenges for any
individual in both mental and physical terms which are sometimes too hard to
deal with. At this point thinking positively and looking for a sound treatment of
one’s individual condition seems to be the best option. And this is indeed
necessary if the situation is related to your limbs, and more so if it concerns
your legs because then your movement is restricted and you may not be that much
active to deal with the current situation that you find yourself in at the
moment.
Well, there are
two ways a leg is amputated- either it is below the knee or above the knee. In
below the knee amputation, the leg is cut below the knee level, so the part
above and including knee is safe. But in the above knee amputation the entire
leg is amputated in its entire length. In this particular situation, if you are
looking for artificial leg above
knee level, the entire leg needs to be replaced with some appropriate
artificial limb in order to provide balance and coordination to your body,
especially when you consider walking around or doing your daily errands by
walking or even sitting.
But when it comes to amputation below knee, the
position of leg below knee is amputated and can be replaced with a suitable artificial leg below
kneeto provide the required support to the individual.
Both these cases
come with their own challenges, though above the knee replacement is certainly
a more complex situation where not just the part of leg but the entire leg
including knee mechanism is required to be replaced and might indeed require
different level of expertise than for below the knee replacement treatment. So,
you one may want to look for expert treatment centre or artificial limb
providers according to one’s individual condition as some artificial limbs
providers have their specialization in a particular condition.
Human Technology

knee replacements as well as artificial leg above

comfortable and confident time in their day to day life.
