Amputations

Amputation, the surgical removal of a limb or part of a limb, is a life-changing event often necessitated by trauma, severe infection, diabetic complications, or circulatory disorders. At J K Hospital Multispeciality, we approach amputations not just as surgical procedures, but as crucial steps in restoring health, preventing life-threatening complications, and beginning the journey toward recovery and rehabilitation. Our expert orthopedic team ensures that each amputation is conducted with the highest standards of safety, precision, and patient comfort.

Each case is carefully evaluated to determine the necessity and level of amputation, whether it’s a minor toe amputation due to diabetic foot complications or a major limb amputation following traumatic injury. We use advanced surgical techniques that preserve as much healthy tissue, bone, and function as possible, and we plan every amputation with future prosthetic fitting in mind. Pain management, infection control, and wound healing are priorities during the immediate post-operative phase, and patients receive individualized attention to support both their physical and emotional recovery.

Rehabilitation after amputation is a multi-disciplinary process. At J K Hospital, our care extends beyond the operating room, with a dedicated team that includes physiotherapists, pain management specialists, prosthetic experts, and mental health counselors. We offer custom-fitted prosthetic limbs and artificial limb training to help patients regain mobility and independence. Emotional support, patient education, and regular follow-up appointments are essential parts of our commitment to holistic care. Through our integrated services, patients are empowered to adapt to life post-amputation with dignity, confidence, and renewed purpose.
