This is definitely a case by case situation.
First, the activity level, and the type of activity are
crucial. You say low activity. How low?
Could stubbies help to achieve amputees
goals? Many Questions!!! The Dr., PT
and most of all, the amputee along with you,
I hope will discuss these important issues.
What achieves the realistic desires,
and goals of the person wearing the
prosthesis. To answer your question;
Stubbies-High tech knees- somewhere
in the middle? It's the team's call.
