How long does it take to get used to a first prosthetic leg?

Adjustment varies. Many people feel physically comfortable within weeks, while confidence and ease develop gradually over several months.

Will my first prosthetic leg feel natural?

Most people don't describe it as natural at first. Over time, it often fades into the background of daily life, which is usually the goal.

Is discomfort normal in the beginning?

Some adjustment discomfort is common early on, but ongoing pain or instability should be addressed through follow-up care.

Do I need to be active to benefit from a prosthetic leg?

No, Prosthetic legs are designed to support everyday life, not just high activity levels.

When should I contact my prosthetist?

Anytime something feels off, uncomfortable, or harder than it should. Early adjustments often prevent bigger issues later.
