The pain of losing a part of the body can put any individual into anxiety and can disable him
psychologically and physically. The concealment of an amputated appendage using a prosthesis
can prevent social stigma, bring back the confidence as well as can help in the improvement of
physical function to some extent. The Prosthesis must be economical, comfortable, lightweight,
durable, cosmetically appealing, and easy to wear. The treatment of any amputee completes
only with the complete rehabilitation. The commercially available prosthesis is costly and
during the COVID-19 lockdown, many of the prosthesis making units were non-functional.
Then the option to complete the rehabilitation is to go for the indigenous prosthesis. In this
article, we share our experience of making simple, cost effective and modest prosthetic options
to a patient who lost her little finger following a full thickness electrical burn.
