The cost of a below-knee artificial leg in Pakistan ranges between PKR 80,000 to PKR 900,000+ based on:
- Socket Material: High-temperature polymer thermoplastic vs. aerospace laminated carbon fiber.
- Suspension Interface: Standard cuff/straps vs. medical silicone gel pin-locking liners vs. active elevated vacuum.
- Prosthetic Foot: Basic SACH foot vs. dynamic energy-return multi-axis carbon fiber foot.
- Component Origin: Locally fabricated modular systems vs. genuine German Ottobock imports.
Aik aam below-knee artificial leg ka kul wazan sirf 1.2 kg se 1.8 kg ke darmiyan hota hai, jo ke qudrati taang se kahin zyada halki hoti hai.

Absolutely. Diabetic amputees require extreme care because friction can cause dangerous non-healing sores. We implement:
- Total Surface Bearing (TSB) Sockets: Distributes weight uniformly across the whole stump.

- Elevated Vacuum: Completely prevents friction pistoning during walking.
