Why should I use a prosthetic limb after amputation?

While avoiding the use of prosthesis after amputation can prevent discomfort, it can have several ill effects on your health. Without the assistance of an artificial leg, upper-limb amputees may end up relying more on their intact limb. The excessive reliance on the intact limb can lead to straining your shoulder and back and result in body aches on the intact side.

Furthermore, more than 60% of individuals who undergo upper-limb amputation suffer from problems like tendinitis, bursitis, and other arthritic conditions. On the other hand, lower-limb amputees tend to restrict their activities when they choose not to use a prosthetic device. Over time, they also tend to suffer from problems like weight gain, diabetes, and vascular diseases due to reduced activity. Some amputees resort to the use of wheelchairs, which can lead to shoulder tendinitis, bursitis, and arthritis over time.

Besides, overuse of wheelchairs can lead to issues like hip flexion contractures, knee contractures, chronic lower-leg edema, and venous stasis ulcers. You may also end up with problems like weakness and muscle atrophy in the intact limb due to minimal usage of the leg. All this can make worsen the quality of life in patients and cause more pain. We custom-make advanced C-Leg 4 in Memphis to minimize health problems in amputees.

Cost of C-Leg 4

On average, the cost of a new prosthetic leg can cost anywhere between $10,000 and $50,000. With proper care and maintenance, prosthetic limbs have a shelf life of 3-5 years. Also, you must replace the top surfaces more frequently due to wear and tear.

A C-leg allows users to enjoy easier movement patterns on all types of surfaces, be it gravel, roads, sand, or grass. One of the best things parts of a C-leg is that it makes the transition from smaller step sequences to gait patterns a lot smoother, especially when walking at different speeds. It is one of the latest advancements in the field of prosthesis that helps individuals easily adjust to wearing and using a C-leg.

Benefits of C-Leg 4 prosthesis

C-leg offers greater mobility to amputees. In these devices, the fluid movements occur first, and the prosthetic limb responds to different situations. A C-Leg adapts and responds to different walking situations in real-time and makes it extremely easy and simple to climb stairs, inclines, and to walk on varying surfaces. A C-leg ensures a smoother movement pattern and helps you save energy for other activities. It is also more reliable than a regular prosthetic limb.
