🔹 What is Amputation?

Amputation is the surgical removal of a limb or part of a limb due to disease, injury, or complications that prevent normal function or threaten a patient’s health. It may involve removal of a toe, finger, hand, foot, or a portion of the arm or leg.

🔹 Causes of Amputation

Amputations can occur for several medical or traumatic reasons, including:

1. Trauma/Injury

   • Road traffic accidents

   • Industrial/machinery injuries

   • Severe burns or crush injuries

2. Peripheral Vascular Disease (PVD)

   • Poor blood circulation due to atherosclerosis

   • Ischemia leading to tissue death (gangrene)

3. Diabetes Mellitus

   • Diabetic neuropathy and vascular complications

   • Infected ulcers or wounds that fail to heal

4. Infections

   • Severe, spreading infections unresponsive to antibiotics

   • Osteomyelitis (bone infection)

5. Cancer

   • Malignant bone or soft tissue tumors (e.g., osteosarcoma)

6. Congenital Limb Deficiency

   • Rarely, some children are born with missing or underdeveloped limbs requiring surgical correction.

🔹 Management After Amputation

1. Acute Post-Operative Care

• Pain control (medication, nerve blocks, psychological support)

• Wound healing and infection prevention

• Management of swelling with compression dressings or stump socks

2. Rehabilitation

• Physiotherapy: Muscle strengthening, mobility training

• Occupational therapy: Training for daily activities

• Psychological support: Coping strategies, mental health care

3. Prosthetic Fitting

• Once healing is complete, prosthetic devices may be fitted

• Proper stump care and use of prosthetic socks/liners improve comfort and fit

4. Long-Term Management

• Regular medical check-ups for stump health

• Monitoring for skin breakdown, infections, or phantom limb pain

• Lifestyle changes to manage underlying conditions (e.g., diabetes, vascular disease)
