π« Myth vs Fact: Limb Cancer Treatment
Many people believe that if cancer affects the leg, amputation is the only safe option. **This is not true.**
β
In many cases, the limb can be safely preserved through surgery β especially when doctors achieve whatβs called *negative margins* (removing the tumor completely with healthy tissue around it).
π The risk of cancer returning is nearly the same as amputation when done correctly.
π Saving the limb helps maintain mobility, confidence, and overall quality of life.
Amputation is **not always necessary** β limb-sparing treatment is often the better choice when possible.
π Always consult a specialist and explore all options before making a decision.
π¬ Awareness leads to better choices
