why can’t people in wheelchairs get prosthetic legs to help them walk again? I just saw a video of someone go from a wheelchair to prosthetics and was wondering why more people can’t do this
In: Biology
I’m not a doctor, but different people end up in wheelchairs for different reasons. If someone has both limbs, but has extensive nerve damage, then prosthetics might not be enough to help them become mobile.
In addition to this, the cost associated with having prosthetics created for you is not a cost that many people around the world have funds to cover.
